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: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198206918895

    Victim profile: 76561197970799456

    What happened? Description:
    This new friend initiated a chat and then told me he had accidentally reported me for duped items instead of the real person who had scammed him. He wanted me to add an "admin" as a new friend and then explain situation to him. If I didn't follow these instructions, I would be banned in 2 hours. I took a look at the "admin" profile and, sure enough, he is a known fraudster. Here is EYE 3 steamrep block:
    | steamname: 3
    | steam3ID: [U:1:139665161]
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:1:69832580
    | steamID64: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198099930889
    | customURL: https://steamcommunity.com/id/1234554362141
    | steamrep: https://steamrep.com/profiles/76561198099930889

    I did not proceed with his demands and simply stated that his admin was a known scammer and that I would report him. He then unfriended me and left conversation.

    Merry Christmas,
    Ching​
