99.9% of things from Discord is a scam https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/70E6-991B-233B-A37B especially when it comes to game items.

This person is a random stranger first & foremost. What did your parents teach you about trusting random strangers?

Scam. I hope that you didn't sent them anything.
Regarding person who contacted you - block and report.

Any time someone you don't know messages you and starts threatening to report you on a completely different platform, it's a scam. In fact, if someone you do know suddenly does that, chances are their account was hacked. Best thing to do is block that person and report them to Discord for attempting to scam you.

Rule of thumb if someone randomly contact you from social platforms, private messages, or unknown email then demands you to pay them, or threating you that you need to login somewhere just assume it's a scam.

If you ever doubt something, don't be afraid to ask for help.
