make your own account. what you are doing is a violation of the SSA and can result in all related accounts being LOCKED or TERMINATED

No, that's not how it works, your purchases are tied to this account and can only help recover this account.

But I mean if I add funds and buy something with another paypal or credit card would I be able to change email and phone number?

did you create the account? if not, you should not be accessing it.

if you didn't create the account, attempting to take ownership is not really allowed

I didnt created this account.

So If I add money to this account now (which is not created by me) Im not able to proof ownership. Even If I upload screenshots of my paypal or whatever..card. Still cant be able to proof ownership?

the person that created the account is the OWNER, and you cannot transfer ownership of an account without Steam Supports help, and they do not transfer nor recognize the transfer of ownership of an account. as far as Steam is concerned, you are one of the account hijackers/scammers, nothing more.

No. This is not your account. You didn't create it. You don't own anything in it.

I mean contacting steam support with proof that i buyed something with my card or paypal?

what is not clear? YOU DIDNT CREATE THE ACCOUNT, you can never be the account owner because of that.
dinamo Jan 12, 2021 @ 10:57am 
Yeah ok. But I heard from some people If I add funds now but from my paypal that I would be able to change email or phone number then. I understand all this dude. But 1200 dollars inventory... I was thinking giving you guys some of this but nobody want to help. How is not possible to proof ownership If i buy something with my card now?
Wolf Knight Jan 12, 2021 @ 11:00am 
its very simple, the person that created the account is the owner of the account. does not matter who paid for what on the account. you are on a STOLEN account, why would you expect others to help you.
