    (My current steam name is "Leet" but it was "Le3t" at the time of this incident)

    I was marked as an SR scammer over a year ago now, but I've only realised recently since I only really started semi-regularly using steam this year. I noticed I was banned from Lethal-Zone servers and decided to follow that up today. I appealed my ban to them first and I was told that I should appeal here.

    I've also discovered that the reason for this was my brother. He scammed someone out of 185$ of TF2 items by paying for them through my paypal account (which I have since locked due to further missuse) and then charging back. I have been unaware of this until now. But it doesn't surprise me greatly since some of my own items were traded to my brother's steam account at a similar time, although he claims his account was hijacked at the time. That was also the only time I have ever made a trade to or from my steam account. The email address that is (was) linked to my paypal account is the same email address that's linked to my steam account so I assume that is why I was marked as an SR scammer.

    If it helps, this is the thread that the victim of my brother created: http://forums.steamrep.com/threads/report-76561198015380737-jotanic.1290/

    I know it's an old offense but I'd still rather not be marked as scammer when I wasn't involved.

    Thank you for your time.

    If you could get your brother to admit to his misdeeds on here it may help your stories. If he continues to say he was hacked ask him why the items were transferred to his account after they used your account. I doubt a hacker would steal two accounts and scam on one and use the other as storage.

    Yeah it's a pretty unlikely scenario, but every time I've confronted him about it he gives me the same crap so I've given up on him. Either way that part is not that important to me, I'm not concerned about my own items I'd just like to not be marked as a scammer.

    You have to appeal with the account that was originally marked.
