My account was marked as a scammer/ fraudulent item holder and I think I screwed myself

[Zombie]

Several days ago, a fellow TF2 player contacted me saying that this marking was on my profile and said that he would sent a steam ticket to help me and a few minutes later I was given this Janne Do3 profile who said he would help my profile problem. I sent him most of my inventory so it could be checked, then he had me buy keys from marketplace.tf and cs.deals to, I guess remove the marking. He is now saying that I have to buy a Dota 2 item (the Dragonclaw Hook) which, on cs.deals, is priced at $475! I have not continued further as I think I have been scammed and I would like to hear feedback to make sure this is true.

Unfortunately, it's true that you've been scammed. At least you caught it before shelling out $475

Yes you have clearly been scammed and no you will not be given your items back. You are clearly warned in the trade window.

I had a feeling, if you guys could can you see if the marking is at least gone and if it's not tell me the proper way to get rid of it?

There is no marking and there never was.

Depends, you CAN cancel trades with holds.

The trades already went though and they're gone, but if you could do me a huge favor, report the guy i mentioned so that he will be banned and can't scam anyone else

I don't know, I never trade with strangers so I have no idea. Maybe you can, use the link.

No, you report the account. False reports won't result in a ban.

The "guy who originally contacted you" IS THE SCAMMER.

Jesus, why are you even asking? They're just MAKING STUFF UP so that scares you.

There are no "ways" to see if YOU are the scammer here, because *they are lying to you*.
