strange steam profiles
This morning I go on steam and look that instead of my name there are numbers, the region, description, profile picture and even invitations from other players have disappeared I had 23 and today in the morning there are no. Has anyone met such a thing?

First, are you on the correct account?

Second, secure your account if you know this is the one that had those things and now does not.

Scan for malware. https://www.malwarebytes.com/

Deauthorize all devices https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage

Change your password on a secure device.

Generate new back up codes. https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage

Revoke the api key https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey
** If there is nothing in the API key area, that’s fine. If there IS something, remove it. Nothing should be there.**

No items that have been traded away during this time will be returned to you.

Yes, my account is ok, I have not fooled anyone because I will not exchange or cheat in the game, if I only play on ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.com like yesterday.

at first I thought it was some information from Steam, that I would get banned for something.

I had something like that for the first time

Most likely compromised account. Please do steps explained by Zekiran to secure your account.

I think I have to mention here. There is a common scam method involving putting something on your profile page like "You have violated Steam Terms of Service, the account will be locked in 24 hours". It is bait to have you trade your inventory, their bot will redirect the trade to impersonator account.

Always be careful with using 3rd party sites. The one you mentioned is filtered on here for a reason.
