    What happened? Description:
    Ok so basically, It all started when some guy called Gorodo (his alt account - (http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197962871935/) added me on his friend's list. I thought it was just some other guy, so I accepted the request and started talking to him. He was unresponsive at first, so i played some tf2 until he replied back. I then told him I was quickselling my unusual memory leak bolted birdcage for 13 keys pure, and he says if I can go any lower. I say no, price is a bit fixed, and then he agrees to it. But only if he checks if it's listable on opskins dot com (not going to link it incase it's a fraudulent site), so I'm thinking at first; he reassures me he'll trade me like normal so I agree. I already had signed in before to the site - to see what it was - but that's not related to this incident. Anyway, I go along with what he says, which was to add in my unusual into the ""bot"" and list it at a high number of $9999; so nobody buys it, and the bot receives it. He then says don't click deposit, but to check my steam notifications - which I found to have been sent 2 pending offers from these ""bots"" (I late find out these are alts, as the bot #0003 was changed to my profile pic, with same description, but different name).

    So, I'm ofcourse quite nervous about just giving away my unusual, but he reassures me that he wont scam me and that i'm safe with this security code in the trade - I have no idea what he meant or what it was for. Anyways, i managed to accept the trade and the unu was gone - then he says to check my opskins listing on the site, and i do see it listed for the high price of $9999 - so i gained a little trust within him. I vaguely remember him sayng something went wrong, so he traded me back the unu and he asked for my other items too (balloonicorn taunt, strange spec ks fan o war and a strange spec ks rust rocket launcher) I thought he was legit then, so i reoffered my items through the ""bot"" and that's when it started to get a bit dodgy. He said he needed my steam username and mobile auth code to "make sure the trade went smooth" - or something along the lines of that atleast. I was hesistant at first, but I STUPIDLY thought to myself that nothing could go wrong - as i didn't give him my password
    I was wrong. very wrong.

    I gave him the information and he then said he needed my gmail password to my gmail account. At this point i should have thought, he already knew my information and i should change my passwords immediately, but he kept me hooked in conversation.

    i texted him on my mobile via steam chat saying no. I will not give him my gmail password, as it is too personal. He was confused, but i asked him to wait (as i was starting to finish my chores) and when i came back to my pc.
    Gone.
    My steama ccount had been logged off, due to the password change
    My phone number - removed
    My email and password - changed

    Now, steam support have retrieved my account details and I have my account safe and secure
    But he has still taken my items and stored it into his private backpack​

    I see no evidence against the accused - you can't just make a report against an account and not put evidence against it - nothing proves this or the other accounts are connected in anyway.
    I see no original agreement either noted between you and the other account and looks as if you took talks to voice which really hurts the report.
