Got an e-mail today of someone trying to reset my steam account password. Anyone know how i can find who this twerp is? Ip address that tried to change it is 68.42.3.199, originating from East Brunswick NJ (I live in GA.) Just kinda pissed me off when i opened up my e-mail and there were 2 attempts to reset it.

Things to Watch Out For
Account hijackers have several common methods of attack, most of which rely upon misinformation or deception. Your account cannot be stolen if you follow these recommendations and refrain from sharing your account.
Watch out for these activities:
- Requests for login and password information
Deny requests for login and password information from other users. Do not share your account login information with anyone. No reputable gaming clan will ask for your login information to join. Game server administrators do not need your Steam account information. - Unsolicited messages from "Steam Support" (Phishing Scams)
Ignore unsolicited messages from "Steam Support" unless the message originates from the support.steampowered.com domain. - Malicious programs in downloads
It is common for executable (.EXE) files, dynamic link libraries (.DLL files), and batch (.BAT) files being offered as parts of "mods" to contain malicious software designed to steal Steam account login information. Hacks are another very common source of malicious programs.
