hacked or cloned my account?
About 20 minutes ago today I found out that an account with the same image and name bought a knife in CS (which I don't play) and didn't pay, then disappeared out of nowhere. Clicking on the profile doesn't lead anywhere, it gives an error saying it can't find the profile or that it doesn't exist, something like that.

Now I'm afraid of being banned again, since for some reason I still don't know I lost my previous account overnight. Am I being hacked? Has this happened to you guys?

How would you know that an other account didn't pay for something? That seems unlikely.

I get the impression that someone is trying to scam or deceive you... what other accounts do isn't your problem.
No idea where seeing this from, or know if someone buy something, or not.

Display names are not first come first serve, as it can always be changed, multiple people can have same display name, if using popular avatar that wouldn't be shocking if it happens with combination of short name, or unoriginal name.

Only reason a scammers copy people profiles is to impersonate by tricking someone thinking they're sending items to a friend when it's the scammer, and to compromise their account with phishing link to repeat the scam.

And no Steam support does not contact you, nor should anyone as that be red flag automatically someone claiming be support, or working with support as scammers use fake images, gift, and videos sent to the victim to trick them.

Steam does not banned people account base on account name, as each account has unique number that can't be changed, nor alter hence why you should worry at all if it has nothing to do with you.
