You should contact your divisional adviser or DL and let them know so they can keep your account off the servers for now. Even without a maul pin they can still impersonate you.

How exactly do you get your steam account hijacked? lol

I once got a link for a free game. The like was for something like store.steampowered.BLAHBLAHBLAH.com/?Blah=Blah or whatever.
Most people just look at the beginning of a url. So when they see store.steampowered, they accept it. And usually those sites have an "authentic" looking steam store login page.
However, the blahblahblah.com is a different site, probably a phishing site. And the store.steampowered is just one small phishing project.

go to steam support, make sure you have a key you used on your account tho so they can verify you're the actual account owner. I was hijacked before, obviously i got it back, but it took a few weeks.

Gosh really sad to hear your account have hijacked hope you get it back!

they ever have been trying to hijack me , i've been getting emails about the steam updates, but if you click the link you don't get to the offical steam site, but something like a replica , and they ask ur id, passes etc etc...

Always be suspicious of links you get from people, unless you know they're trustworthy. Even the most of legit-looking links can be scams.

Scammers can link you fake webpages that look completely flawless. Even the URL can be exactly the same as the real counter-part. I don't know how they do it, but they're able to mirror entire pages and URLs to jack your info.
