Reverse trade is a scam himself.
I've been API scammed by fake bot on a trade website (BitSkins), I needed to reverse trade before being fcked and now I'm TRADE BAN FOR 30 DAYS.

Thank you Valve, Gaben and the Steam Support to be this useless, i'm the victim but it's me who is banned, not the scammer.

You shouldn't be using those kind of sites in the first place. You literally asked for this to happen... :TiredAisha:

Report the bot via it's profile, so they can take steps against it.

Valve do not support third party site trading. So of course they're going to hit you with a harsh cooldown. The only place where trading is supported is within Steam itself. You do any other kind of trade at your own risk.

The trade ban is not a punishment, but a protection.

Get your account security in order and stop using third party trading sites. You now have 30 days to do so.

Sadly it's this. Just this.
