Because you did not trade them to your friend. You gave a phishing site you login details. That allowed them to access your account. Edit your profile with that BS message. Then when you Panic'd and sent a trade to your friend the hijackers BOT cancelled it. It then modified their account to look like your friends and resent the trade all with a few seconds so you didn't notice a delay. You then ignored the warning about the target NOT being a friend and confirmed the trade.

Your skins are gone. Report the account that received them, block, move on and stop

Logging in on dodgy sites
Believing stupid messages on your profile
Confirming trades Without paying attention to the warnings and checking them.

Read the message they left on your profile and you'll see the obvious warnings.

1. Valve wouldn't hijack a profile to contact you.
2. 24 hours? From when? That could have been 25 hours ago or 1 minute ago.
3. Do police give you change to move money, drugs, murder weapons before they arrest you? No they don't. They'll arrest you first and you'd have to challenge them.
4. What is the point of locking an account if they tell you to move valuables?
5. Just look at the grammatical errors in the last line. We are allowing you this time to send your valuables skins (either Valuables but no skins or valuable skins) to a friend or storage account

View your inventory. Next to the Trade button is the word More with a down arrow. Click more and view trade history. You'll see where your items went

Sorry to tell you, but Name&Shaming is not allowed. Better remove that name. You have to report it yourself.

Happy to help

I recommend you remove the users account detail though as naming and shaming is against the rules. Anyone can hurl accusations. For example I could just as easily create a thread accusing you.

Plus if we start reporting a user when Valve can see we've had absolutely 0 communication with Valve will know they're fake reports. That could result in Valve assuming they are all fake and they ignore them all.....including yours.
