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.

    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198157244944

    Victim profile: 76561198011745510

    What happened? Description:
    Person added me, stating to buy both my unusuals (C9 waxy for 25 keys and Eerie Bucket Helm for 23 keys), together for 55 keys, which is quite a lot higher than my asking prices. He then asked to check the items for duplication, asking if I had a trusted friend online. I removed him at this point as I'm pretty convinced an impersonator of the trusted friend will attempt to steal my items. (Chatlogs im second screenshot)

    Also found out shortly after that he himself was impersonating another (more likely reputable and trusted) trader, as seen in the first screenshot.

    I do hope that this guy gets flagged so others will not fall for this.​

    Provide Evidence:
    Screenshot 1: Scammer (with friends only acc) impersonating another account (public acc)

    Screenshot 2: Chatlog​

    Oh man, sad to see you lost your hat :(

    If you can, can you take a couple of screenshots of your inventory history and chatlogs if any? Any little bit of evidence would definitely help =)

    If you or anyone else has proof that you have been scammed, you have to make your own individual report rather than bloating someone else's.
