    Ill tell u what happened to me: 1 guy added me.. he was like - u searchin for this item, huh? so then we traded.. after makin the trade, another guy added me.. it was a guy scammed by that slut who traded with me.. he wanted his item back, and told me, that if i paid for the item (i did) and if i return it to him, ill soon get a dupe of it from valve.. he also sent a report to valve, so i think they will see my trading history... Will i get my copy of the item?

    You don't get a copy of the item, steam support will give him a duplicate of the item if it was stolen from his account under certain circumstances (e.g. hijacking)
    Sounds like he is trying to get his item back for free by scamming you. Also he may not even be the real owner of the item, could just be some random person trying to rip you off. Either way you shouldn't give him the item for free.

    SteamRep is not affiliated with Valve in any way. We do not return items.

    @xxBonsai99xx:
    - "We" would imply you're SR staff...
    - "do not return items" implies that we have control over such, which we do not.
    More correct would be: SteamRep cannot return items, for they are not affiliated to Valve and or Steam.

    They will give you your items but is one time gesture. Make sure you wipe(trojan) your pc before getting your items.

    Steam support can take a week or up to 2 weeks before they respond. And the more text you put up, the less likely they will respond in person. The tip is to ask 1 question, that is specific, nothing else. Remember, they have less then a minute per steam support ticket to spend.

    now my gift was stolen :(

    i never got stolen since create steam account, and i never login into any website using my steam oauth. But since i was interest into steam oauth to create my own web, i test oauth script in this site:
    http://bensmith.in/steam/
    https://github.com/SmItH197/SteamAuthentication

    after that, 1 hour later, my game gift was automated reedem to this account http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198167143295
    how possible?
    maybe bensmith cheated me?
    because i never got hjacked before, i think bensmith stolen my account. can i give it back? or its imposible.

    Nobody should be clicking that link you posted... that is the reason you were basically phished and they got sent to a newly made 2 day old account. File a steam support ticket.

    The site first linked actually did link to Valve's real authentication page. Not really sure where what went wrong, for I don't see the need to login into that site. Unless after the steam auth it again asked for the same data.

    yeah, dont test on your account, because all you valuable item will be sent to alex498023. i just say after login to that site, my all game gone. or maybe this is pure my fault, not that site.

    please always becarefull, dont let your item stolen.

    I know its 2 days ago,
    btw i already send the gift to my liltle brother account, but idk why all goes to that alex498023.
    maybe something wrong with my account.

    Already do to revoke my gift. but i think steam cant help my problem, because no trade made, its gifting. :(
