    What happened? Description:
    A non-friend user named "Joseph from APEX" sent me an apology saying that he accidentally reported my account for item duplication in TF2. He then said this account "Thispickmin" was a steam admin, and that I should add him and work with him to make sure my account is not banned. He had video evidence of my account and a "ban appeal" button, and asked that I send him a screenshot of my purchase history. I sent this to him as requested.

    After I sent a screenshot of my purchase history, I realized that might have not been the smartest idea, and I researched to find that purchase history can be used as evidence to hijack an account. After that I reported both accounts and am now submitting this.​

    This is NOT the first user you should be reporting - You basically reported the other user that was brought into the scam event. You must make sure from now on you report the FIRST user you were contacted by and who started the scam..you only need to reference any other accounts involved and describe HOW they were involved in the description by including the FULL SR profile block along with details of how they were involved.
    Also include any and all FULL screenshots you have as evidence.
    Please do not resubmit a new report - this one will do for now.
