    Appeal description:
    I got banned for "Steam wallet scam" which is not the case at all.
    I saw few people reporting similiar to what i committed , but the report always was rejected becasue its code.

    Basiclly i got scammed once for "CSGO Pin" and after i reported it on steamrep my repot got rejected becasue you dont ban here people for "code scamming" it was awhile ago so maybe not exactly those words , but my point is my report got rejected while this one got accepted as "Steam wallet scam"​

    You're trying to avoid my question. Did you you send a fake code?
    Did you try to scam that user?

    Have you repaid the victim? And if so, you need to provide proof and full, uncropped chat with the user.

    Also please disclose all your alternate accounts including associated accounts and explain your relationship to them per appeal tips #7

    Giving two weeks to followup.

    After a review, getting scammed, reporting it to SR, then scamming with same method since you thought you could get away with it, is not reasonable to me to consider an appeal for.

    Appeal denied.
