You gave away all your account details.
The account name, the password and the KEY to the door, the Steam Guard Mobile code giving them access to the account.
How? by either logging into a known scam site or sites, tailored malware on your PC, the vote for my team scam, you have a pending ban scam on Discord, free knife click the link etc.
How does Steam (a program) know it is not you when all the account details are correct? It doesn't, therefore any action taken on your account is seen as you doing said actions.
The alternative is not plausible:
1) Someone would have to "GUESS" your account name from "millions of possible combinations".
2) Next they would have to "GUESS" your password from "millions of possible combinations" and then match it to your account name with "millions of possible combinations".
3) And finally they would have to "GUESS" the Steam Guard Mobile code "which changes every 30 seconds" to match both your account name and password to then have access your account.
It is also possible that there is keylogger in your friend's PC.
That stranger commenting on your profile is probably the same hijacker trying to rope you back with some 'I accidentally reported you' bullsht.
Make sure to do ALL the steps provided here (you have probably done some or all of it but I just want to confirm it):
1. Scan for malware.

2. Check that the email and phone number on the Steam account are still yours.
3. Deauthorize all other devices.

4. Change passwords from a clean computer.
5. Generate new backup codes for your Mobile App. https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
6. Revoke the API key (there should be no key).
