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.

    What happened? Description:
    So Urban was an old friend and he decided to contact me and told me I was marked as a scammer. He then showed me a screenshot (fake) and the screenshot displays me as a scammer. I then decided to play with him a bit and he told me I had to add a "Steam Mod" to clear things up otherwise there would be penalties in the future.​

    Hope you dont mind if i ask you, do you have items that came from scammers? Had you been trading with scammers?

    [17:35]
    HG | Combine :
    oh s✿✿✿
    not sure

    [17:36]
    UrbanRanger:
    It concerns me since i know cases like this is a real deal. If you just let this pass, you will have penalties in the future

    [17:36]
    HG | Combine :
    what should I do?

    [17:37]
    UrbanRanger:
    I know you've invested a lot of time, effort and money in your account and with that, i already sent an appeal while you were offline so you can just process it directly

    [17:38]
    HG | Combine :
    ok

    [17:38]
    UrbanRanger:
    here's their response
    In order for you to clear this issue, you have to contact an authorized steam mod. So i already sent a steam support ticket for you and when steam replied they told me to add this steam mod ok so steam replied and told me to add this guy https://steamcommunity.com/id/LevDavds/ he will help us check your account
    https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd....748/9E13838F38B930228ADA303CE3E34F9AD11037CC/

    Add him and ask him about the screenshot i sent you. Tell him why you are flagged that way

    [17:39]
    HG | Combine :
    hold up
    eating. I'll do it like in 5 minutes.

    [17:39]
    UrbanRanger:
    just add him now so you can process it immediately
    did you add him already?

    [17:41]
    HG | Combine :
    hold up cleaning hands
    done
    now I have to finish eating

    @HG | Combine Here is the thing.. its very likely your OLD FRIEND was compromised or hijacked.. I suggest you try to contact them in another way.
    Tagging them here would add increased hardship should the real owner regain control of the account.
    This is a very very well known tactic used by hijackers/scammers lately.
    Try to contact them outside of steam to see if they did in fact have this happen.

    Also when you submit a report here be sure to include ALL users even mentioned - lucky the custom URL was still in your chat copy/pasted logs and it still worked.
    | steamname: LeviDavids
    | steam3ID: [U:1:1155981]
    | steamID32: STEAM_0:1:577990
    | steamID64: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197961421709
    | customURL: https://steamcommunity.com/id/LevDavds
    | steamrep: https://steamrep.com/profiles/76561197961421709

    Also pay close attention to the screenshots of that other user I'm adding...this is valuable stuff you must obtain prior to submitting a report here.. its all involved and useful to review.
    I'll check back on this report over next few days.. again try to contact accused another way and if you have NOT reported both to Valve yet do so right now so if they were hijacked Valve will comm ban it and I'll know not to issue a tag.
