    *I have no alt accounts, this is the only steam account I have ever had for the past 2 years. I Should be signed in via steam now as well so this better be valid this time. As far as how I got control of my account back, steam support gave me control back and changed my password. And the post where I was reported should be all the proof anyone needs that my account was hijacked and I am not a scammer.

    My steam account named oblivionscamp(steam name "jerk store") has been marked as an SOP scammer for a while now, I would say about a year at least. It hasn't become much of a hindrance until recently. I would like to clear my name because I have never actually scammed anyone on a tf2 trade ever(I have traded so many times and everyone on my friends list can back me up that i am fair and nice). Back when I first got steam somebody sent me a random chat message that had a bad link in it that I clicked and somehow the dude got into my steam account and started spamming messages to all my friends and they in turn reported me. I don't really even know what happened from there as I didn't even know steamrep existed until the last couple months. I really don't know what else to say or what other evidence I can provide unless somebody has the power to go back in time and check my history. It's not like there is any evidence that has been provided to me that I am a scammer that I know of, since somebody hacked me I don't get how I am a scammer because of that. Anyhow, I hope something can be done about this, as I didn't even get a warning or anything I just got marked as an SOP scammer for something that was out of my control. Please let me know if I can do anything to help clear my name. Thanks

    Hello--- you claimed your account was hijacked and you regained control of it. Can you log into Steam Support's ticket system and provide a screenshot of your ticket (to regain access) with personal information blacked out?

    An example:

    Hey Mark--- I hid your most recent response because it included screenshots that had personal information that you probably don't want to share publicly. Let me review them and see if we have the information we need here.

    Hey Mark-- it's rare for an account to be marked so long, but your story makes sense, matches similar hijacks, and your ticket information is clear and checks out very well.

    As a result, I'm removing the flag on your account. Please continue to be very careful and avoid clicking on shady links like that in the future. Not being able to control your own account can permanently affect your reputation.

    Good luck.
