Stolen CS:GO Inventory
Hello,
i accepted a new Friend Invite and he asked me to to join his Teamspeak Server. i tried to join his "fake Teamspeak" but an error Message showed up. I lost my Internet Connection for a few Minutes and after i was back Online my complete CS:GO Inventory was traded to someone. The Email Confirmation for Trades was active and i still have Access to my Steam&E-mail Account. Ofc i changed the Password and scanned my System for anything. How are the Chances to get my Inventory back? I never got something restored through the Steam Support. What else can i do to prevent something like this? except of blocking all unknown new "friends"...

Sorry for your items ..

Be wary of strangers wanting you to join their teamspeak. Also have your login username and display name be different names. and make sure your default teamspeak username doesnt match your steam login name.

After Steam Support got abused to dupe certain items, they said that they would not return any items.

There are some exceptions, but I doubt this guy is going to be one.

So far, OP seems to qualify for item restoration, unless there is something that we don't know about. Case by case basis is how they do it anyway.

"Inventory restorations are granted on a case by case basis. "

"case by case basis"

Do you guys want the OP to NOT get his items back ?
