What happened? Description:

While i was playing cs:go , my steam name became some random numbers and my profile had a message talking about my personal information and saying that i was hijacked. a guy suddenly messages me without me even accepting any friend request saying he was part of steam support. he said he had to reboot my steam api so that i would not get hacked and told me to transfer all my csgo items to a friend or smurf so i did. When i made the offer , the offer sent to my friend was canceled and the trade was sent to another account impersonating my friends account. and he said he would give my items back in 7 days.

this is the impersonating account. https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198951416371/inventory#730_2_16328691479​

Your account was compromised by virus and illegal programs.
Have you seen the message on your Steam profile?

Well, you have logged in on a phishing site and they got your Steam API already

-CsD2- Brent:
As said on the message, you need to transfer all tradable CSGO items to another account, because if i reboot your account right now, those tradable items if not traded will be gone or removed from the account.
You can transfer them to your smurf or your friend's account. Anyone, as long as they are safe, so that i can proceed on reviewing your account and give you another Steam API
