Rust Skins illegal Trade
I've sent no less than 5 similar requests as follow to Steam Support and each has been ignored and closed with NO RESOLVE. What gives Steam Support, you got my money so screw me now? Easily over 400 Rust Skins where illegally traded away without my consent or knowledge and I want them back. This is what I wrote to Steam Support:

Greetings, On or about the 16th of Oct, 2023, view in my Trade History, several Rust Skins were fraudulently traded from my account. I did not in any way, shape or form, authorize this trade yet my Rust Items are just gone. The account is a lv 1 account and is currently trade banned and I'd like my items back. I'd also like to know how this was even possible as I've had zero interactions with this person. I've noticed my Rust Inventory Items went missing and for the past two weeks have been trying to figure out what happened. Today I stumbled on to Trade History and found several items traded away and I'm here to say it was fraud. You can check my history and I don't trade; I think maybe 1 or 2 at the most but years ago. This trade needs to be reversed and I'd like my Rust Items back. I didn't think to view trade history because I simply don't make trades. I've invested a lot of money into this game and it's been stolen away. I was not hacked nor have I given anyone access to my account. I recently added a few friends but deleted them as they just seemed shady. Anything you can do to return these items would be greatly appreciated. Again view my Trade History, you will see a full page of over 100 Rust Skins stolen away in a single Trade that I did not Authorize. Please reverse this trade... See attached file for fraud trade date and account, Thanks...

Again each report was ignored, as in no reply, and closed with no resolve as my Rust Skins are still missing. I have two trades, a legit trade when I first stated playing Rust a few years ago, and this illegal trade stealing all my skins. This theft took time and Steam should not EVER authorize such a trade. Who is going to just GIVE over 400 Rust Skins away and get NOTHING for it. I want my Rust Skins back Steam, DO YOUR JOB...

You are responsible for your Steam account. Activate the mobile authenticator.

steam doesn't compensate skins, also trades with non steam mobile authenticate trades are 14 days so either your bricked or accepted the trade via mobile

Did you have the mobile authenticator in use? if not, why?

why? why. why no one is forced to use, and even without mobile authentication it is safe.

Yes I have 2 step auth set up, had it set up for years now. I don't make trades, I buy from the market. I would not ever just give away over 400 Rust Skins for nothing in return. Steam was hacked and they refuse to reply.

If you have mobile authentication which you say you do then you HAVE to ACCEPT the trade on your phone. Which means you're lying.

You say that over 100 skins were taken from you in a single trade? Those that have actually ever made a trade will know that such a thing is impossible. Also impossible is you not having to accept trades when you have the mobile authenticator set up. We've got ourselves a liar liar, pants on fire kind of clown who thinks the rust community/developpers naive enough to buy his little sob story.

IF you're going to try and pull a scam like this, at least do your homework first kid...

You physically CANNOT trade 100 items in 1 go you lukewarm toiletseat... Get it through your incredibly thick skull that ppl are aware of what is and what isn't possible regarding transfers... You can try to insult me however you like, i couldn't care less. Fact of the matter is that you got busted telling a big old fib and now you're a salty little tosser...

or... looking at your pics, a big old bald tosser. i don't usually rate ppl going on their physical appearance but in your case i might actually make an exception cuz damn! only a mother can love a face like that...

Like I told you before, with two factor authentication, this would be impossible. Unless they hacked your phone too. Which would mean that you have bigger problems than the rust skins.

If you didn't enable two factor authentication, then steam won't help you because they warned you this could happen. If you did enable two factor authentication, then go change all your passwords, wipe all your devices, and stop using shady websites. Steam still won't help you.

You physically CANNOT trade (what exactly does that mean?)

I tested exchanging 108 items here and even confirmed it in the app.
