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.

    • This is NOT an admin, and you should NOT trust anything they say. They are NOT affiliated with SteamRep or Valve in ANY way.

    I don't understand what OP is getting at, or what he hopes to accomplish.

    Mattonaly, if you're reading this thread, the above poster is NOT part of SteamRep staff, and NOT a Valve employee or "Steam admin". He is copying the profile of another reputable member of the community (who isn't a "Steam admin" either). This is the OP's profile:
    And here is the REAL Rui's profile, who happens to be a moderator on r/globaloffensivetrade as well as here on SteamRep:
    Note also, that he would have a "SteamRep moderator" and "Partner community" banner below his profile picture, just like I have "Administrator" below mine. The above poster has no such status.

    Please have a look at the box at the top of every page of steamrep.com:
    And as @Lava already explained, yes, the OP is an impersonator and tagged on Steamrep as such. Lava made a more in-depth post about item checking scams recently that you should also read: https://redd.it/4xy0pl

    The other profile you linked to with a non-permanent vanity URL has also been already tagged as a scammer for two months:

    I was on mobile so I was little bit unable to check his profile.
    Thanks all.

    For this clear abuse by this scammer of using our site to try and scare a potential victim into being scammed, hes been banned from the forums for 6 months, if he attempts any such s✿✿✿ again, he will not be able to use our forums again, ever. In addition, his forum name and avatar have been changed to prevent any misidentification by others.
