Larko 43 Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 (edited) My steam account was just hijacked, anyone that receives this link DO NOT OPEN IT, it will take over your steam account like it has mine. My account was hijacked and they took everything, changed the email and all. When you log in they ask for a code to verify, this code from your mobile authentication gives them full access to your steam. DONT GO TO THIS LINK, watch out for your mates as well, I got this from an old mate! Edited July 29, 2019 by Larko 1 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Kumo 401 Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 idk why anyone would ever trust a sketchy link sent to them by some random and then proceed to type their steam details and mobile authenticator into this random website. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

It appeared to be a legit steam login, I thought if you logged in with steam then 3rd party things can't get those details, but silly me didn't look at the URL and it was taken Link to post Share on other sites

Larko 43 Posted July 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 Today is a good morning, the glorious steam has uncovered and returned my account to me in one piece. It turns out when they took my account they messaged a number of people on my friends such as Welshy, but he is a smart man so it didn't worry him. But yeah it is an easy trap to fall into if your a silly person especially (like myself). 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Billybob1061 89 Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 A good way to tell if the steam login is legit is to check where the information is sending to via f12 or something like that or simply checking the url of the page you are putting your details in. It should ALWAYS say Steamcommunity in the url as the domain. Link to post Share on other sites

Next year it will probably only be an hour. But yeh, I submitted the ticket at like 9 last night and it was all fixed by 1 this morning so fairly fast. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
