Here's how I would do it:

{ "rules_user_content_viewed" : {
    "LABEL" : "User content viewed",
    "PLUGIN" : "reaction rule",
    "OWNER" : "rules",
    "REQUIRES" : [ "rules", "rules_i18n" ],
    "ON" : { "user_view" : [] },
    "IF" : [
      { "text_matches" : { "text" : [ "account:uid" ], "match" : [ "site:current-user:uid" ] } }
    ],
    "DO" : [
      { "drupal_message" : { "message" : "You\u0027re so vain, you probably think this page is about you - and you\u0027re correct." } }
    ]
  }
}

what format is this please? is there an equivalent series of steps to access through the UI?

That's an export of a Rule configured in the UI. To use this on your own site, go to /admin/config/workflow/rules, click the "Import rule" link at the top, then copy #4 and paste into the form there. After you save, the Rule with show up in the UI on your site, it will be working, and you can examine it and modify it.
