WARNING: steamhacker trying to get your login info

Rawh · 01-28-2009, 10:38 PM

I just got a retard who tried to get me to enter my steam login onto some page.
Pretty sure it's fake, but here's the details:

For anyone curious on who it might be, here is his steamid page.

My bet is that he became a member of that group to spam the people in it.
It's how he did it with myself. Got a chat request from him and an immediate c/p of the above message.

Hehe, connected to the url, via an isolated linux machine, and it seems the account that is associated with the url got removed & disabled.

No harm can be done if anyone accidentally fills in any info

4PP are pretty good.

Wait what were we talking about?

We don't need an update on these forums for every new dumbass's phishing attempt. If you guys aren't smart enough to avoid being phished, no amount of warning is going to prevent it.

Never give your Steam user ID or password to anyone, ever, under any circumstances. If the site doesn't say www.steamcommunity.com or www.steampowered.com do not log into it with your Steam ID/pass. Steam will never contact you via friends for any reason.

It's all very straightforward.

That's not even a hacker. Phishing != Hacking, and nowhere near as admirable.

The truth comes out. You don't deserve to use Steam.
