    What happened? Description:
    https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198869237969

    This guy just send me a message with a fake scam, he said he got scammed by someone with my name and somehow he contacted a "fake steam admin" and reported me to him ( https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198272817940/ that's the url of the fake steam admin ) then I added the admin and asked him what happened and what should I do.

    The admin said I have a PENDING BAN REQUEST on my profile and he added me on DISCORD then asked me for my steam account userid.

    I mention that I had that guy who started the "scam attempt" on my friend list for 1 or 2 days, because I added him to trade some TF2 items, but we didn't make the trade.​

    I described everything that happened.

    How long have you known the accused? Looking at them is it possible you think they were hijacked?

    Looking at the users profile would you say that the user was likely hijacked or compromised and not even in control of their account?
    Profile certainly doesn't look like that of what a typical scammers looks.

    No, by looking at the accused profile I can say his account is not hijacked, but the other guy's account, the fake steam admin, maybe, because I can see some +reps on comments for his gameplay I think.

    I want to add that -everyone can become a scammer in these days-.

    When you see several of these things a day like I do you would think otherwise... Are you still friends with the accused? If so I'd like to give it a few days to see if you can contact them again and see if something has changed.. I'd rather not tag an innocent user if I can help it.

    Both of those players blocked me on steam, I can't talk with them anymore.
