I'VE GOT 100 SECRET SAXTONS!!! May 24, 2023 @ 4:25pm

I know most people may know about this kinda scam, but I'm still quite unsure myself regarding what I was told by a user claiming to have accidentally reported my account for fraud. They sent me a screenshot of a supposed ticket Steam Support sent them when they explained the issue, containing a Discord username that was for me to appeal on the matter. Is there any actual way for me to contact a "Steam Mod" to deny their claims once and for all?

It is a scam, just report and block the person. Steam doesn't use discord and will never contact you for any reason.

Important things only come as Notifications or Community Messages. Random users on steam chat or discord have no legitimacy in regard to the status of your account.

Standard scam.
