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.

    What happened? Description:
    He commented on trading site that I should add him. I did it and he said he will offer me PayPal code. I knew they aren't real so I knew he was scammer.I gathered as much evidence as I could.

    First, I gave him fake paypal link which doesn't exist and he said that this is where I redeem.
    Then I told him how ''Paypal could look like which I made up. (PP____)

    At the end I still asked him if it will work and he said it will.​

    @alkon You failed to provide a FULL screenshot of the users profile WHILE friends- unable to verify this was the user you were talking to.
    Follow next set of instructions.

    Thanks - issue is I can't confirm you were ever friends with this exact user by SteamID - all I see is a chat box with a name and profile image. Need to verify this and you can do that with a screenshot of your friend/user activity thru a web browser - when you take this and it shows you adding the user hover your mouse pointer over the users name so it shows the popup of the profile. Make sure you open this in a web browser before doing anything rather than steam client. Take the screenshot and make sure it's Full Screen and make sure steam client URL is enabled, not edited or cropped in any way! Upload HERE…NOT imgur, NOT gyazo or any other 3rd party hosting site!

    Review this screenshot guide to help you:

    It doesn't find it for some reason :/ What if I add him back? There is still chance some chat history will appear.

    He isn't adding me back prob... The only other thing that could verfy is his comment on the trading site; it links it to his profile if you go on his lounge profile; https://csgolounge.com/trade?t=275900215

    If that isn't enough I guess you'll have to lock this
