I'm in no way associated with theft or any other fraudulent activities that I know of, and I acquired all of my games by legal means to the best of my knowledge.
Please fix this issue.
Thanks in advance, |

You got stolen cdkeys probably, maybe from opened game boxes at some shady russian store. Then whoever bought them made a claim with Steam because he couldn't activate his cdkeym showed them receipt/proof of purchase and your account got flagged.
Sorry, dude, but you knowingly bought cd keys from unauthorized sellers and circumvented the region locking. Now you got unlucky and got cought.

Maybe the VPN was used by other people aswell to scam people. They look at who used that ip and voila, le ban.

kinda makes me think if someone bad happens, being 'honest' probably isnt the best policy...
id probably go in all guns blazing 'HELP MY ACCOUNT WAS HIJACKED, I CANT LOG IN, HERE IS A CD KEY TO PROVE THE ACCOUNT IS MINE, PLEASE HELP'
at least id figure id have a better chance than trying to appeal to their kindness or expect them to use reason and rationalise things...

Wrong, have a steam friend who had a games in his inventory which were bought with a stolen CC. He did get his account locked in that case but was able to get it unlocked via a support ticket.
Another friend couldn't get his account unlocked after a game bought with a stolen CC was removed from his library.

And it was a game worth 2 pounds 
. The delay is also placed on purpose to discourage people from using support. THAT'S what kind of cunts Valve are.
