VACation?
I was family sharing my CSGO to a friend, since he does not have it, and I thought all would be good. Let alone, I go back on my pc 10 minutes later, and look at this! A vac ban on his account, and mine. I didn't know the little ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ scrub would hack, or even get me banned if anything happened to his account. So here I am VAC Banned after I spent over 500 dollars on skins and knives, and can do nothing with them. SO, I am here to see if contacting steam support, can either get the items to my friends account to hold, or just an unban if possible. What do you guys think? Could steam maybe do this? I saw that bans can not be lifted, and im quite sad right now. Wasting my christmas money, and my friend getting banned, made me get banned... :/ Thanks, and would not like any mean revolting comments against this. I'm already not in a good mood.

I understand. But, was wondering if by ANY chance, they will see the false ban and understand.

Will I be punished for any cheating or fraud conducted by other users while playing my games?

Your Family Sharing privileges may be revoked and your account may also be VAC banned if your library is used by others to conduct cheating or fraud. In addition, VAC-banned games cannot be shared. We recommend you only authorize familiar Steam Accounts and familiar computers you know to be secure. And as always, never give your password to anyone.
Note: If you are VAC banned, you will be unable to share any VAC protected games.

EDIT:

VAC does not do bans in 10 minutes.

He said he was playing a game, and he was banned. THEN later, he told me he had cheated.

VAC does not work that way.
