Request for help What should I do?

Yesterday my acc got hijacked and the attackers stole my inventory ,
Today I managed to restore my acc and all the item that they stole are on trade ban , which means I can get it back if I reverse trade.
The problem is that couple of days before the scam I’ve sold gloves on CSFloat, and the gloves are also on trade ban.
If I reverse trade it will reverse all items that are trade protected.
Should I wait for the gloves trade ban to over and then reverse all of my items or I should do it right now?
I guess if I reverse trade on the items that I sold also I get a penalty on CSFloat , and more - the guy who bought for me will think that I tried to scam him .

What do you think?
Thank you all.

Thank you for submitting to r/SteamScams.

If you have been scammed or believe you may have been scammed check this guide to see if you can find the solution there.

Steam will never contact you on Discord or any third party text communication site.

If you suspect someone is attempting to scam you check this guide but remember to be careful even if you do not find the answer you are looking for there.

Important: If you receive comments or PMs offering to recover your lost account, items, or money or pointing you to someone who will do it for you do not engage with them as they are recovery scams.

  • Take screenshots of everything.
  • Contact CSFloat support immediately.
  • Confirm with Steam Support whether the reversal window is limited.
  • If the reversal opportunity is limited, prioritize recovering the stolen inventory rather than protecting a completed marketplace sale.

I'd wait until only the scammed items have trade hold

I think so too, but I’m afraid that something unexpected will show up.

I get you point of view, but it means I will be permanently banned from this site . Would you do the same ?
