    Appeal for BANNED BY SOP

    Steam profile: 76561197993754848 (Full Brody Contact)

    Appeal Plea: I am innocent of all listed offenses
    Appeal Reason: [Accounts] Hijacked - My account was abused by hijacker
    Victim Repayment: No, I committed no fraud or had no direct victims
    Previous Appeals: No, this is my first appeal here

    Alternate Accounts:
    This is my only account.​

    Appeal description:
    I was recently notified by a friend that I'm flagged as a fakerep scammer in Steamrep, and I just wanted this corrected. I am assuming this happened a few years ago, when I had some account anomalies at the time. I am assuming I was hijacked. Unfortunately, the info link to my steamrep page shows nothing to me.​

    If you were hijacked, provide a timeline of when and submit a screencap of your support ticket (without username/email)

    It would have been towards mid-to-late 2011 when I possibly had an account hijack, because after that I activated Steamguard two-factor authentication. They hadn't touched any of my personal accounts, so I didn't think to submit any support tickets. I changed my Steam password and enabled Steamguard after that.

    Tag was applied mid 2012, not 2011 in that case, your account was not hijacked when you posted the fakerep.

    I did try trading briefly on a few TF2 trade servers when they started getting popular, but I don't recall having much success with it besides small trades for crafting. Mostly I've done private trading between friends, if at all. I'll try to find any other information you'd like, but it has been a while since I had even considered trading.

    The accounts on your SR profile listed as your alts, explain who they are/your relationship to them.

    I don't know who any of the other people are. I'm neither friends with any of them, nor have any of them in any of my circles as far as I see. I don't recall having played with any of them at any time, from the few profiles I can see. This is my first and only Steam account.

    That being said, I'm not even sure under what reason Steamrep might think they might be alts.

    I don't think I know this user personally. I can't view his profile so I can't tell if we overlapped at any point unfortunately.

    Your appeal is accepted.
    It is likely the fakerepper made some of his alternate accounts on SOP based off of real steam users (you being one of them).
    Their is no solid evidence that you are an alternate account of the banned user.
