    I have noticed that you have a pending ban report issued on your profile, random user(s) reported you for having dupplicated items.
    Are you aware that if you cant prove yourself here that your item is in good condition your account will be deleted on steam permanently?
    Steam user are you with me?
    Excuse me?

    [5:51 PM]
    Agent C | tipofthehats.org:
    Sorry about that, just reading what's happening
    How do I remove this false report?

    [5:52 PM]
    :
    Give me your trade url.
    All you need to do here is to make an appeal and prove that your item is in a good condition and it was a false accusation so that I will cancel the pending ban in your account is that clear?

    @Agent C That is not who you were in contact with first.. who is that? That user is who started the scam and is the one that should be reported.

    The user you just reported is the one that your so called friend called in and who is already banned/tagged.
