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.

    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Other] Any other fraudulent behavior
    Virtual item type involved: [None] No items

    Accused profile: 76561198154196799

    Victim profile: 76561198133397562

    What happened? Description:
    Accused profile added me saying that they accidentally reported me for duped items. Since I know about duped items, I know Valve doesn't ban accounts for having duped items and assured Accused Profile not to worry. But they kept going on about how I need to add this person and blah blah, even going so far as to provide videos of the report. I knew that this was a scam from the start so I just played along to distract him since, so long he's talking to me, he isn't scamming others. I never even called him out on it but it seems that he had suspisions that I knew that I was on to him since he just unfriended me and blocked me after I sent my last message.
    I never added the fake admin profile nor did they get anything off me. I have seen this scam so many times now, I get maybe 3 invites every week that are just the same scam over and over again.​

    @Klush I need the SR profile block or ID64 of the user they mentioned for you to add that was also to be involved.
    soon as possible.
    Also make sure you get a FULL screen of the users profile WHILE friends to ensure you are reporting the correct user and to verify that.
    Lucky I was able to verify this another way but that is rare.
