i was scammed out of my entire inventory on CSGO

[Norwegian Weiner]

I was scammed by someone stating they were an admin and I have lost my entire inventory. Over $1000. They changed my name and password and took all of my inventory. I was able to report them and now they are banned but I don't have any of my inventory for CSGO and steam won't get the items back for me. If they are banned shouldn't it be easy to get those items from that users inventory and reverse the trade back to me? I am at a loss of what to do. Anyone got any help ideas they can help me? This started happening at 3:30 this morning and went on all day long.

You will not get your items back. YOU gave them away.

You need to do a little research on how to keep your account safe and secure.

The first thing is: stop going off steam to do any trading. I see plenty of scam site urls in your name history. Don't do that.

[ShelLuser]

Nothing you can do. Trades are final, it says so everywhere, and that's not a rule Steam can go back on "just because".

You gave away your info, probably to one of those sites your advertising.

See the auto link removals? that means that steam is trying to stop you from going to those sites. They do this for a reason.
Unfortunately, you'll have to learn from this mistake, as items are almost never reinstated by Valve.

Totally your fault for using AND advertising those scam sites in you user names. GJ.

Everything is gone forever.

Okay, this is worse than a bad trade, they had account access.

He made a mistake and has paid for it dearly. I very much doubt he will do it again. No need for name calling.
