What happened? Description:

I initially was interested in trading for an MvM ticket (saw his listing on trade.tf) but by the time I contacted this user, it had been sold. I was traded a Strange Cloak and Dagger for 15 Refined even, not far below market value so I was not suspicious. However, hours later I was contacted by this user, and the classic admin scam seemingly was initiated.

This user told me he had "accidentally" reported me directly to a "steam admin" and wanted me to get in contact with the user to remedy the problem. He said if I didn't my account would likely be banned. On steamrep this "admin" is community banned.​

Provide Evidence:

4 screenshots of chat from mobile have been uploaded.​

Also here is the trade agreement.

And here is the alleged "admin" he linked me to.

Yes. Both have been reported as of now.

UPDATE: User has apparently regained their account. They messaged me.
