    1. Should I report to steam and say I was hacked and email address is also hacked, can I get my item back in this way?
    2. If friend is deleted, can I find our chat history whatsoever.

    Please Please help me T.T I am so willing to pay whatever it takes to get my item back. EVEN PAY A HIGHER PRICE THAN THE LOST ITEMS!

    Thank you guys!

    Steam Support knows if you were hijacked or not. Do not lie to them.

    My friend just lie to steam support and get his item back, but it is not guranteed.
    But really, if I don't lie, are there anything I can do?

    In addition to:
    You have to be able to open a chat window with the particular user to see the recent chat history. In some cases you may be able to do this by e.g. membership of the same group, participation in the same chat room etc.

    You may face a Valve Trade Ban if you lie to Steam support.... lying that you got hijacked while you got scammed is pretty much the stupidest thing you can do. Also, Valve can see if you got hijacked or not, they have all the log files and can see everything of your account.

    I know of multiple people who have also lied to steam support to get their items back.

    My friend lost her HOUWAR in a spycrab about a year and a half ago, called steam support claiming hijack and they gave it back, along with her other unusuals she lost that day.

    SInce then, however MANY PEOPLE have tried to lie to support in order to duplicate their items. Steam Support has started cracking down on such activity and handing out trade bans. On multiple occasions, users have even had their accounts deactivated entirely so they can never log into steam again.

    If you want to lose your account, feel free to lie to steam support about being hijacked. But don't say we didn't warn you.

    I am not trying to argue who is right or wrong, I just want to collect information and know the truth. The thing is someone success, but you say someone fail. However, scammer even will not be deactivate for the first time, lying once will be deactivate forever? Are you really sure?

    Jesus Christ!!!! DO IT!!! Just LIE to them and get whatever you lost back or see what will happen!!!! Do you really think posting here and arguing about it to people that really don't give a damn will help the cause or make you feel better!!??

    I mean I'm not trying to argue, or be hateful but you have to admit what you are doing isn't helping nothing and arguing with people if lying to Valve will get items back will work or not is just wasting time and bandwidth!

    Why are you so irritable? You just like I just kill your dog. :( Again, I am not here for arguing, I just want to collect information and find a better way rather than stay home and cry. I know you don't "give a damn will help the cause or make you feel better", but some one will. There are lots of nice people in this forum I know, unfortunately, you are not one of them.
    Anyway, I do not demand you help, is your free to reply or not. But I do not seek for arguing whatsoever!
    You can tell me what I am doing or what I am going to do is wrong, but you can't be so confident for whatever you do is absolutely the best way. I will ask for different people for help.
    Again, I am sharing information not arguing for opinion like a kid. If you are a member of steam support and you are doing the job of deviating people who lie once, that will be a valid prove.

    Thanks for your time.

    You are not allowed to collect any information on SteamRep forum in order to trick Steam Support.

    DO NOT LIE!

    We cannot support lying to Steam Support. If you chose to do so by ill advice, that would be your choice, and not something that we can let ppl "advice" others about.

    Therefore topic closed, and any further topic on this will be closed too.
