Warning - Steam phishing scam

[}SoC{??h?R?]

If this isn't the right forum, please move it. But I wanted to let all my pals at ego know that there is a phishing scam going around Steam right now. If someone on your friends list has fallen for it, you will receive an instant message from them that says, click this link to receive a free game from Valve. When you click the link, you are prompted to log in with your steam id and password. You then lose your steam account because the phisher steals it by changing the pw.

DO NOT FALL FOR THIS!

**

If you have already clicked the link and logged in, giving the phisher your login and pw, you can reclaim your steam account by going here:

You should go ahead and send the link to Steam Support, along with the name and Steam Community profile of the person who sent it.

Come on guys, stop posting links. They may exploit vulnerabilities in browsers, in addition to trying to scam people.

Just report them to Steam Support so they can deal with it.

Morbo has the right of it. We appreciate people coming and posting warnings to the rest of the community. However, if you have a link to one of these sites, go to Steam Support and report them. Any links to these types of sites posted on our forums will be removed for the safety of the community. Please, do NOT post links to phishing sites here.

Thank you.
