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.

    @KovuTheHusky I can't confirm you and this user were ever in contact - please screenshot your activity showing you adding this user. When you do hover your mouse pointer over users name so it shows up the users profile popup. Full screenshot!

    My apologies, with some more investigation I must have confused the trade links he provided with him. I should have reported this user: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198128644568

    Is there a way to update this report to be for the correct user?

    I feel like a jerk now that I reported the wrong profile. Thanks for any help you can provide. staxx_fake.png

    Also, he's already marked as a scammer. Sorry about this - let me know if anything needs to be done to delete this report against the incorrect user. Sorry for the trouble.

    Or in other words (sorry for any confusion),

    | steamname: sTaXx
    | steam3ID: [U:1:168378840]
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:0:84189420
    | steamID64: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198128644568
    | customURL: http://steamcommunity.com/id/byStaXxx_
    | steamrep: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198128644568

    was impersonating (and offering me items from the inventory of)

    | steamname: sTaXx
    | steam3ID: [U:1:94192606]
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:0:47096303
    | steamID64: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198054458334
    | customURL: http://steamcommunity.com/id/bysTaXx
    | steamrep: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198054458334

    and in the process was trying to use a fake middleman:

    | steamname: SilentReaper(SR)
    | steam3ID: [U:1:141932996]
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:0:70966498
    | steamID64: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198102198724
    | customURL: http://steamcommunity.com/id/SilentReaper__SR
    | steamrep: http://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198102198724

    who was in turn impersonating

    | steamname: SilentReaper(SR)
    | steam3ID: [U:1:179411292]
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:0:89705646

    Yep he too was impersonating the real users identity and inventory to look good. You must be sure of who you are reporting when you make a report.
    I will fix the report based on what you provided and act on it.
    Make sure you report the impersonators to Valve also
    In order to do that, you have to:
    1. Visit the accuseds profile
    2. Click MORE drop-down located at the top right of the page
    3. Choose REPORT VIOLATION
    4. Select the violation, then describe it and provide the evidence
    5. Click SUBMIT REPORT
