Account hacked into and CSGO items sold on third party website
Today i realized that my items in csgo were missing and started looking into it.
First i found out that my items were traded to a site.
Then i found 2 emails sent to my email account 2 days before the day i lost the items,
the first one was a request to change my steam mobile authenticator through SMS and the other
was saying that the request was accepted and i have received no message on my phone.

Then i looked into the recent login history section of steam help and saw tens of logins
from an IP originating from Moscow, Russia. I am not from Moscow, Russia or anywhere near.

I can't think of any way my phone was compromised since i never leave it out of my sight
have not downloaded anything or visited any un-safe websites.

As i was writing this i visited skin cashier and found out the account is linked
to an email adress i have never heard of and the support on the site told me
the items were sold for a crypto-currency called Ethereum.

Is there any way i can recover my items ?

steam does not restore stolen/scammed items.

also, remove the sites name, advertising is not allowed

''Steam Support does not restore items that have left accounts for any reason, including trades, market transactions, deletions, or gifting.

It is your responsibility to secure your Steam account''

You should be more concerned about the catastrophic loophole your end rather than your items also.
