Returning items is not a thing on Steam anymore since years.

Your items are lost. Also stop using such scam sites in the future.

I would love to but since I didnt put money in my account for years I had no other option to sell my skins . Steam is amazing , u gotta give them money to do something with your skins and if u dont , u get scammed .

Then you have to live with the risk of being scammed. The only safe way to trade is using Steams trade window, if your account is not already compromised thru API scam or similar.
