They are trying to have solution for a problem since a long, however it seems it’s not producing positive results:

Note from asker:
Primeiro, muito obrigado; nesse caso eu suponho que "you" em "in engaging you" não seria necessário, você concorda? |

A frase completa ficaria "Não estou interessado em ajudá-lo a fazer-se passar por vítima". Esta é a minha sugestão.
