Steam Hacked

[Believer]

I know some of you might not check the other forums, so thought I'd post this here:

TL;DR:
- Your account might've been comprimised, watch your credit card activity for the next few days.
- Change your Steam password immediately to be safe.

Thanks, man; I'll change my PW right away

 

[AkatsukiX]

Change your password now!!!

- Your account might've been comprimised, watch your credit card activity for the next few days.

..ouch. And yes, might've, but I wonder what the purpose of this attack was if not to claim credit card information.

Thanks for the info.

Ive had my account hacked once before, and let me tell you all, its the worst thing trying to get it back, and it takes forever, so take the precautions and change your passwords.

This makes me sad, people are too greedy and don't want to work for the stuff they want.

I don't think I've ever logged into the Steam Forums... Do you automatically get a Steam Forum account with your Steam Account?

(Either way, I'm changing my Steam Account password.)


Edit: A friend told me I had to sign up for the Steam Forums separately. Which I'm sure I didn't. Looks like I'm in the clear.

This makes me sad, people are too greedy and don't want to work for the stuff they want.

But wouldnt going through the hastle of hacking steam and compromising millions of accounts, be working for it?

Now i'm not standing up for them, but they are putting alot of work and risk into this. It's not like someone going around and begging for free credit card info xD

But to be back on topic, I've changed my password completely

 

[Stryker1]

Pass word is changed.

Thanks for the info Believer.

 

[Redwood]

I'll change my password, thanks

 

[SnowCanary]

Changed. Thank you!

I have the added security feature that doesn't allow access from unknown pc's without entering an access code and I already deleted my credit card info
