The issue in GetHuman-paulles's own words
Earlier today, a random guy wrote me he'd be interested in a certain Item in my inventory. I didn't expect anything at that point and just went on with it, but over time, I got suspicious with them. Eventually, I didn't want to go on with it and told them so, to which they only responded by raging at me and threatening me that they'd get my Account banned with a big group of theirs because I "wasted their time" because I was unsure and didn't want to get scammed. I also have a screenshot of the chat I had with them where they specifically mention the threat. *Now I have been banned because of too many scam reports that went in recently and I'm panicking because I have no idea what is going on. I have done nothing wrong and now I recieved a VAC ban.
GetHuman-paulles did not yet indicate what Steam Software should do to make this right.
I have an issue with Steam Software too
How GetHuman-paulles fixed the problem
The Problem was that I got scammed and was too dumb to realize it right away. Though I don't know how, someone managed to change my Profile Name, Picture and Description and made me believe I had just recieved a VAC Ban. They tried to make me deposit my items on a *rd party website to "save the items because they'd get deleted permanently" though I refused, because I wanted to trade them to a good friend of mine for safe-keeping. When I told that friend of mine about my situation, he took a look at my Profile and luckily realized quite quickly that it looked quite different to what a normal VAC Ban looked like. Having it pointed out to me, I quickly realized that too and changed my Profile data as well as my Password...although once again, I'm not quite sure how they did it since I have a very good Anti Virus Program that didn't detect anything when I ran it after that fiasko and I'm even using the Mobile Authenticator.
