What happens if I trade my items for stolen items?

    If I trade with someone, but his items are stolen from a hijacked account, do I lose those items when steam recovers the items to the hijacked account? And if so will I get the items back which I traded?

    Not likely, if you traded for those items with items, you can make a steam support ticket. If you paid for them by real world money transfer (Paypal or w/e) and they get revoked you are out of luck. Most times Steam Support just restores the backpack of the hijack victim. If they see you are a real different user then the hijacker, they won't touch your account. unless they see you as a "mule" account.
