Q: Can I request a civil standby to help reclamation of scammed items on Steam?
Recently, I got scammed on Steam (Valve Corporation) and lost valuable CS2 skins I paid for. The scammer’s account has been trade banned, and thus my scammed items current reside within the scammer's inventory. But Steam Support doesn’t want to restore those scammed items to me. Firstly, can I request a civil standby to facilitate the reclamation of my original scammed items from Steam Support? Secondly, if not, can I start an arbitration with Valve? From an arbitrator’s view, what would be the possibility of getting my items back? Thank you.
A: Call the Treasury Department with all the details. That company is notorious for having their friends present stolen debit cards to them for cash and goods. The operators need to go to jail
