Is this guy real?

[Gɾҽҽɳ Pσσƚιʂ]

a guy named Dallivido sent me a trade req. well. not him. a thing called database (numbers) i dont remember the numbers. BUT. let me give a quick explanation:
a guy named shephard. requested to be my friend. he said he reported me for an accident and now my acc will get deleted. he sent me a link to the dallivido acc. claiming hes a steam employee. we talk then. he sends me (the dallivido guy uses the database thing to sent me a trade req) a trade request for most my Team Fortress 2 Inventory in steam. i decline. he says my account will be deleted/banned.

It's a common scam. So yeah, he's a real scammer.

Steam support will never contact you through chat. Steam support doesn't need other users to help them talk to you. Steam support wouldn't need you to add them as a friend (in addition to not using chat). Steam support doesn't use discord or any external apps. Accidental reports are meaningless as Steam support can see all the activity on your account and a report that claims you did something when your account hasn't done anything isn't going to be acted upon and Steam support doesn't need your help to confirm that.

Scams often rely upon fear or greed to make users act against their best interests. IE do what we want or you'll be banned. Which is scary to an unsuspecting and unsure users. You'd have to know quite a bit to be sure it's bogus, like how support operates, to night be a little frightened. And invariably some people go along with it because "better safe than sorry".

You did the right thing. Report all the accounts and block and move on.

Also keep in mind the "scammers" may be, probably are, using hijacked accounts. Hopefully those users recover their accounts.

As a followup I'd learn a bit more about scams and common scam tactics and maybe put a few minutes into making sure your account is properly secured. It would also be a good opportunity to generate and store those Steam Recovery codes that you can generate when setting up Steam Guard (you can re-generate them any time). They're very useful and tons of users don't have them when they need them most.

Very common scam.

Remove the link to the profile from your post, public accusations (even if true) are not allowed.

You could do the following steps to secure your account, just in case you clicked on any links.

1. Scan for malware https://www.malwarebytes.com/
2. Check that the email and phone number on the Steam account are still yours.
3. Deauthorize all other devices https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
4. Change passwords from a trusted/clean device.
5. Generate new backup codes for your Mobile App https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
6. Revoke the API key https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey (there should be nothing in the APIKEY)

I just noticed that I have been invited into 5 scams but never took the bait.
