Its a scam, your friends account was hijacked. Block and report them.
Report as account compromised.

Go to the profile and report violation and choose the appropriate option. If you can contact your friend outside of Steam let them know their account is stolen and to contact Steam Support. help.steampowered.com

I guess it is a scam attempt. What your friend will do next is link you with a fake admin that threaten to ban you.

It's a common scam, we have scammers goes out of their way making fake videos, gifs, and screenshots, all just to trick you into giving them your items, account, or even your money to them.

So here fun fact, support will never contact you ever, only time they ever reply to you, is when you contact them, and they can only be contacted by ticket, they only reply by ticket as well, they will never reply outside the ticket, so anyone claiming to be admin, or telling you add an admin, and asking stuff, you should know right away it's a scam.

Here is the most common reason people get accounts hijack for any service really are as followed.
- Sharing account infomation with others.
- Logging in on phishing sites.
- Downloading / Installing Virus / Keylogger on your system.
- Using public devices that has keyloggers, such as cyber cafe, school computers, and etc...
- Storing your login credentials on a unsecured service that others has access to view.
- Using same login credentials for all your things, or using same login credentials on another service that had a data leak. Yes it does matter because even if it not related to Steam, if using same login credentials, hijackers will try to use those credentials to see what services you use with those credentials. https://haveibeenpwned.com/

Thank yourself too. As you had the sense to look and ask here before going ahead.

Many don't do that.

It's a fake screenshot that the scammer made with a combination of freely available chrome/firefox plugins and some html editing in inspect element in a sad attempt into tricking people into thinking they are a Valve Employee.
