I see...

Have you brought this proof to Steam Support directly or one of Valve's higher ups?

Reading those is a waste of time. Discord = Scam.

They are aware of it and will probably go full on disappointed Picard Facepalm Meme every time this comes up.

Good! Because I too am DEEPLY offended on how Discord is being run by certain people that should never of taken position of authority in the first place.

"Alright, Please send me a screenshot of your purchasing history list so I can program it and check to see whether it has been used lawfully before I erase the report that was lodged against your Steam account."

"But please include the name of the owner."

Not sure if this is
a) info they can actually use, eg. if steam request purhascing history as proof, then this is valuable
b) just making sure is this account valuable enough

They're not legally obligated to do so.

c) All of the above + If the person is gullible enough to give that information over freely, they can move on to asking for the account name, password and guard codes.

They make up a random "reason" why someone gets a code by sms, and ask to tell the code.
In reality the code is for changing something on the account instead, so they dont need password or code.
And the purchase history is a way to ask for the username, without asking for it. To start the malicious action, which they need the code for.

Shout out to all the people here! Please do not reply to nonsense links or to someone you do not know. Otherwise, they will steal your account or the items in your inventory. We live in 2023 and if you still don't pay attention to these things, it's your own fault. please be careful.

I love you all, take care of yourselves

I think this make sense. It gives them both, account name and maybe also document which maybe valuable later on if needed.
