    Appeal for BANNED BY SR

    Steam profile: 76561198060860643 ([BaDum] ~SchnitzelFrenzy)

    Appeal Plea: I am innocent of all listed offenses
    Appeal Reason: [Accounts] Hijacked - My account was abused by hijacker
    Victim Repayment: No, I committed no fraud or had no direct victims
    Previous Appeals: No, this is my first appeal here

    Alternate Accounts:
    I have another account but I only used it to contact to my old friends before I managed to get control for this account again, if this still counts: http://steamcommunity.com/id/SchnitzelFrenzy

    Appeal description:
    What I wrote below is the full story, basically I say that I'm just another victim, my account was phished and hijacked and now that I got back I want to "clean my name" in TF2 and trade again.

    About a year ago a link for "free steam gifts" was sent to me by a friend who most likely had his account hijacked as well, I never thought I would fall for something like that but the website was designed like steamcommunity's, I assumed it was a raffle.
    Not much to tell of what happend afterwards, I cursed myself for being stupid, I kept changing my password through the browser but he changed it too. This was going on for sometime and I was already powerless. I sent steam an email about my account being hijacked but they couldn't help me. 1 year passed and I missed playing the few games I had and the friends I only knew through steam. So, I opened a new account, talked to one my friends and he talked me into try and get my old account back and so I did.
    A few months ago I started playing TF2 again with my school friends, however with almost nothing in my inventory I felt naked and hatless, so I started trading and found out that my options for trading were limited because my account was reported as a scammer, so here I am trying to clean my name.

    I know this may not sound true so if there is a way to make you believe me like the one-on-one interview I saw on the HOWTO: Appeal.

    PS - About repayment, I have no intention of repaying people the hijacker hurt, I am just another victim.​

    I didn't notice until right now that there is a readme post in the forum telling to add screenshots, I'll add one as soon as I find my E-Mail with steam support.

    It took some time but I found proof that I hope is enough.
