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: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198173389367

    Victim profile: 76561198132246961

    What happened? Description:
    Leonys messaged me saying He accidentally reported me for having duped items. I told him not to worry because the steam admins will check and see I have none. He linked me this user and said to let him know. His name is WAGTANG https://steamcommunity.com/id/32423432411145/

    I looked through his profile, and saw others were there for the same reason. I was skeptical. He wasn't an admin, and he's also banned on steamrep.

    Despite me telling him this was suspicious, he continued urging me to add him. I gave him the benefit of the doubt, but warned him that he would be subject to report if WATANG tried to scam me.

    So I added WATANG. Sure enough, he acted like an admin, and threatened to delete my account. He also wanted to "verify" my items. He was very vague on the issue, not giving me a specific item, just "all unusuals"​

    I've known him since around the beginning of summer this year. When I decided to get back into unusual trading. I met him on Vatican's Unusual Trade server. When he traded with me I looked into his backpack profile and I noticed he had a low trust rating because he often ran away from spycrabs.

    But this was back when I knew him to be a legit unusual trader. I don't know why he would suddenly decide to start doing all this fishy business.

    Here's a screenshot of his profile from desktop.

    Can you make contact again - see what they say. I have a thought the account may have been hijacked.

    Unfortunately he deleted me before I could get back to him and confirm whether or not he was hijacked or not
