    What happened? Description:
    The user already has a steamrep ban. He added me on steam today and said i need to contact a valve administrator due to a false report for duped TF2 items and potential ban on my profile. I obviously didn't fall for it. Everything is down below.​

    @Limelight (>^_^)> If you knew they were already tagged here why are you even talking to them?
    that is the purpose of our tags for you to avoid them to start with - making another report against them makes no difference as there is absolutely nothing more we can do to them here.
    You will however need to tell me that you reported ALL THREE to Valve - please confirm that asap!

    I need to know the Fake Admins ID64 ASAP TOO!! I put the other below

    Yes i reported both of them on Steam. I only got the idea of checking steamrep after the convo started already; was curious to see what this guy will try to do to me.

    There was no fake admin, sorry for not mentioning, as you see in this REAL steam link that's an actual valve employee

    ok I'll review this soon - this is a typical situation with hijacked accounts so I will monitor to see what Valve does with the accused prior to reacting.
    Either way a tag here won't stop them
