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: [Item Fraud] Quick-switch trade scam or attempt
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198288722100

    Victim profile: 76561198153457508

    What happened? Description:
    Freakshow (I already know he's a scammer but he has another account) added me out of nowhere.
    I accepted and ask "why add"
    Responds with the usual "oh no I tagged you for ban"
    Then he links me to another account which I checked on SteamRep and it has a valid status.​

    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.

    Also if the other user was already banned/tagged here then this is something you should have seen BEFORE talking to them..check users out right there and if tagged just ignore/delete and move on rather than let them push you into something.

    Account was community banned and no longer a threat - failure to follow up as requested also.
    Archiving.
