I was not using my account when it was VAC banned. Can the ban be removed?
No. Any bans added to an account will remain regardless of who was using the account at the time the infraction occurred. Ultimately, the use and security of your Steam account are your responsibility.
While we understand this can be frustrating, we must maintain a zero tolerance policy for cheating to foster a fair game that all players will enjoy.

The problem is you gave away your account info somewhere. Either a trading site, or one of those "vote for my team" sites, or something like that. They're all just scam sites though so stop using them.
So, your account has been stolen but you don't have a vac/game ban..... then? How did you recover you account? How did you know it has been stolen? Has the thieve so idiot not having been changed neither the password? The true story: you use cheats but not catched by VAC yet, you believed to have been banned ad so ready presented the common excuse "my account has been stolen"..... We wait for you on the banned list.
