There is no such thing as "fake items".
Also all finished trades are final. Unless you still got the trade on hold, your things are gone.

Like Jerry said, there are no fake items.

No, I want an actual explanation, not images.

Either way, support won't restore items that were scammed and have warning when trading for items that you do not own the game to.

I received an Trade Offer for 3 items of Dark Artistry, Lucky Alpine Stalker's Hat, Gingerbread Baby Roshan

The exchange was profitable for me and I accepted it. After that, I saw two sections of Dota 2 in my inventory, I started to google what it was and read that I traded for a fake item.

Also after 4 hours, these items were removed from my inventory.
Why Steam Support ignore me?

Who says they're ignoring you? If you have a ticket, wait for an answer, just like the others:

Actually, there are fake items, created by some unscrupulous Russian "developers" on Steam. They have been reported repeatedly months ago and Valve should have already nuked that developer and destroyed all of the worthless fake Dota 2 items in the process.

This is a newish scam where people create games with similar items to expensive TF2 & DOTA items, they then trade them for the value of the item they're impersonating.

Yeah. This is a the kind of scam Valve really needs to grant item restores on.

Well more accurate to say they did the first time when they accepted that it abused a blindspot in the system but they also improved the warning systems around trades after that to give a suitable alert about.
