1. There is no such thing as a "pending" ban or Steam admin. Anyone threatening your account is a scammer trying to scare you. Read more.

Didn't get the scammer to trade me?

    Hello, I just got someone attempting to scam me with the whole "you have duped items, plz add this admin so he can remove your report" thing so I tried to mess around with them a bit but I think i pushed them too hard and they blocked me.

    Can I still report them? They tried to get me to send them my trade URL

    I can't seem to find an edit button so I'm just adding that they did the whole "inspect element to add 'pending ban' on your profile" thing too, which I have evidence of

    You can report that user you were first involved with - do keep in mind that it is possible that account was compromised or hijacked so make sure you do report the user to Valve.
    If you do report here make sure you include all FULL screenshots of the entire conversation, any ID's of other users mentioned also should be included in the description.
