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.

    If steamrep doesnt want me to report a user for trying to hijack accounts and steal items, where do I report this user?

    for reference this is what I want to report:

    So some random person invited me to his teamspeak which tried to link me to a fake website. I took a screenshot of all of their names in the lobby, I am sure the others are trying to scam others aswell. The names were screenshotted at 7:09 EST. on 7/2/2015
    If that isn't conclusive enough I told them they were all reported for trying to scam me and he kicked me form the lobby and unfriended me.

    Here's the screenshot:

    Here's the profiles of the scammers that were talking to me: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198191888159/

    You can report people who try to hijack your account to Valve via their steam profiles.

    Also, where in this are they trying to steal your account? I don't see anything in what you gave us...

    Don't screenshot through steam. There are many methods to screenshot, what works best for you depends on preference and operating system. I personally always use snipping tool, windows 7 default screenshot maker.

    I just notice the reddit was set private. Basically:

    Attacker contacts victim by chat, invites 'm to a TS3 server.
    Victim uses TS to connect to TS3 server.
    TS3 Server is configured to send a "message" to the users with a fake "error" message and a link to some malware.

    I use ShareX, for it allows me to use easy keyboard shortcuts to make full screen screenshots (Prt Scr), application window screenshot (alt-Prt Scr), Crop shot (like snipping tool, Ctrl-Prt Scr), text upload (Ctrl-PageUp), Screen recording (video, Shift+Prt Scr). Which handles it all for me:
    - Naming of the files with dates
    - Location (location\year\month\filename)
    - Creating a local copy in location of choosing.
    - Upload image to your preferred hosts (I use FTP, but there are many possibilities), see: http://files.steamrep.com/1/2015/07/2015-07-03_13-12-59.png

    It does all that, without me having to handle the files manually, too much hassle, and way too much times that I need to do it. But you can also choose to not upload it, only save it locally. You can create separate keyboard shortcuts to not upload etc.

    That sounds way better than snipping tool. I've just never found enough issue with snipping tool to find an upgrade. I also have four different machines I could possibly be screenshotting on and only have admin access to download new software on two of them.

    SR can not help you get inventory back or access to a lost account - you need to contact Steam Support for anything to do with that.

    Make a report here if you like for SR.
