1. There is no such thing as a "pending" ban or Steam admin. Anyone threatening your account is a scammer trying to scare you. Read more.

    What happened? Description:
    This user https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198068768782
    messaged me about having "Reported me by accident for duped items instead of someone else" He asked me to add an "admin" in order to confirm that it was a misunderstanding. The "admin" he asked me to add was the following user http://steamcommunity.com/id/Asistance-Jean/

    As soon as I looked at the "admin" profile I noticed it didn't have a Valve Employee steam badge nor was it part of of the valve steam group https://steamcommunity.com/groups/Valve

    I suspected this was some kind of scamming attempt. So I looked up the "admin" steamrep profile. I immediately saw that the profile in question had been banned by steamrep.

    I then pointed out to the first user that every steam administrator have a valve employee badge and are part of the Valve steam group. The user didn't respond back and instead deleted me.

    I assume that this was a failed scamming attempt. I will provide below a picture of the chat logs.​
