Valve should take care of it flame.. They should put everything back in the account you just have to wait it out. Keep submitting support tickets.

The community weapons you have are worth about 2k each alone.

Ah, I have my email set up like that, you need to get a text on my phone to use my email on a new computer.

But yeah Steam has you covered. Unfortunately you have to wait 2-3 days.

My account got jacked before too. Passwords taken, hats stolen, etc. Just submit a ticket. Explain what happened. Give any proof that you have on the hijacker. The process is pretty fast with steam.

Just make sure to run (ASAP):

- Malwarebytes Anti-malware (free-ware): http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/

- SuperAntiSpyware (free-ware): http://www.superantispyware.com/

- If you use firefox, which I recommend. Install NoScript to block any java scripts from running without your permission. http://noscript.net/
[This stops you from clicking links that automatically install things without your permission.]

Once you are done doing all these things. Make sure to completely change all your passwords. What most-likely happened, is they installed a keylogger somewhere that takes periodic screenshots (in my case this was found in my apps folder, %APPDATA%). So they have all your information.

More information about my last incident with Yo_D (the hacker)-- http://www.sourceop.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=30097&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=900

and

http://www.sourceop.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=30097&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=900

Not sure if any of this will help you. But good luck flame.

He has community weapons on main weaps like rpg scatter gun etc. They're worth about 2k each. A community vintage luger once sold for about $1500 a year ago. They're extremely rare.

submit a steam ticket with any credit card info you used to purchase items, first email/first password, along with any other information.
The credit card info is the most important.
Happened to me, I got mine back in around 3 days.

Found out where your Burning Tosslecap went to.

http://steamcommunity.com/id/hellmagers/

It's on that profile which has a private backpack

Also, the community weapon cannot be traded so that will stay in your backpack

EDIT 2: actually, all of your stuff is being held on that profile

EDIT 3: Examples - http://www.tf2outpost.com/item/1109719021 - Burning Tosslecap
http://www.tf2outpost.com/item/330396190/440/111/3 - Vintage Bald Scout

http://www.tf2outpost.com/item/660830166/440/146/3 - Vintage Hallmark

http://www.tf2outpost.com/user/12457 - You can view more of flame's trades on there and every TF2 item will have Hellmagers as the new owner.

If it's your first being hacked, Steam Support will definitely get your any stolen items back.

I got hacked some months ago and got my stuff back like a week later.

They won't return items if it's any time after your first though, they'll just track down the hacker and get rid of their account. Kinda shitty policy

Makes sense to me. Making mistakes is okay but people should learn from them.
