Discord group reported me

[Marizz_Lv]

Last week i got like friend invite from random person. I accepted and thats it. 3 days later he asked to trade all my expensive skins in my inventory for 700 eiro cash. I said no i am not interested and then it got wors. He started threatening me that i will get baned for scaming that i will regret not trading and stuff. I sayed that i am not a scamer and thats it... in that moment i got my account geting comments that i am scamer like in few seconds i got community trade banned for no reason. I sended my ticket to steam support and waiting for an ansver... I havent got any trades in like 3 years and all i do is open cs2 cases and buy keys to open them and in some time i get lucky... i dont use 3rd party sites nothing i just open cases! Thats sad that people can get baned for not trading or falsy accuse for scaming because you have some decent items in inventory... hawe you got anything like me? When sameone falsly accuses you for something?

NEVER accept random friend invites, EVER. Now just block them, and wait for Steam support to reply.

if you are talking about the account you are using right now, it is not trade banned, so anything telling you you are definitely indicates you are hijacked

I hope you didn't log Into some third party websites with your Steam credentials...

Lets just copy/paste the entire thing

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your account is compromised.

Do not trade until your account is secured.

Take the following steps to secure your account:

1. Scan for malware. https://www.malwarebytes.com/
2. Check that the email and phone number on the Steam account are still yours.
3. Deauthorize all other devices. https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
4. Change passwords from a clean computer.
5. Generate new backup codes for your Mobile App. https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
6. Revoke the API key (there should be no key). https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey

Doesn't matter, the moment you visited that scam site they kept their eyes on you. waiting till you amassed enough inventory before they struck.

OP, stop using discord. There are many scammers on it, and there are already enough scammers on steam too. If you cannot figure out what scam is what on Discord, stop using it. This is why i do not use discord. There are like 5-6 posts of these all over the community forums about people being scammed on discord. I imagine the security on discord is crap if this many people are being scammed on there.

Just as an aside. In general, it could also be a legit website that has been compromised. Steam login options are widespread. A bit less black-and-white thinking wouldn’t hurt sometimes.
