steam account hacked

[Wings]

I got messages from my friends saying I was spamming them,the spam did com from my account but I did not send it / them, I recommend that if this happens to you check what devices are logged in sign out all that you do not recognize, check your steam wallet because I found out the perp was selling my stuff on steam market they had managed to gather $5 usd, not a lot but still a theft in progress. I applied that balance to a game I wanted so as to thwart the offenders scheme.be careful out there.
ps 2FA does not protect us it only inconveniences the user. hackers can clone a phone so knock it off with the security theater.

I also had this problem. I have emails that show they sent a lot of my store points as awards to just a few people they used a lot of points to boost accounts they had just made.

If you give the Keys away to your house then NOTTHING will protect you...

Yoou should NOT have entering your credentials on that third party skin site yoou visited at some point in the past...

And if you had read the froums a little bit you'd have found ALOT of similar threads...

The mobile auth does protect us. It's users who give away all the login credentials including the active guard code. It's a people problem.

You were not hacked, you were phished.

Do these ASAP:

1. Scan for malware https://www.malwarebytes.com/
2. Deauthorize all other devices https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
3. Change passwords from a clean computer
4. Generate new backup codes for your Mobile App https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
5. Revoke the API key https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey (there should be nothing in the APIKEY)

I assumed it was a bot from the traffic, but I am upset non the less. Is there a way to check devices that have connected?

The mobile app has locations data in Steam Guard. The client has...

Help > Support > My Account > Data Related to Your Steam Account >>> Recent Login History

https://help.steampowered.com/en/accountdata/SteamLoginHistory

Also check Computer Names...

Regarding your points, if it hasn't been 14 days yet, you can try RESETTING your password. You'll get your points back.

Note: not changing, but reset.

Your account was HIJACKED (not "hacked") Because you gave away your login info somewhere.


Watch out for Account Hijacking:

NEVER give out your password to anyone.

NEVER click unknown links from untrusted sources, and check links sent by your friends. Their account may be compromised!

NEVER follow instructions to speak with someone claiming to represent Steam Support through Discord or any other chat system, even if they come from a friend's account or claim to be able to resolve a false report.

ALWAYS make sure you log out when finished at a cafe! Deauthorize untrusted device immediately if you forgot to log out.

See? Hijacked....not hacked.

Your account is compromised.


Steps to take NOW:
1. Scan for malware https://www.malwarebytes.com/
2. Deauthorize all other devices https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
3. Change passwords from a trusted/clean computer.
4. Generate new backup codes for your Mobile App https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
5. Revoke the API key https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey (there should be nothing in the APIKEY)


Please review how you are logging into Steam, you somehow gave away your log-in information. This could of been due to the computer being compromised and redirecting to a fake log-in, or you using a third party site to log in to Steam.

Once you are sure you have regained control, you can start trading again. Please triple check any trades you make to be sure they are going to the correct account.

After you have secured the account, please edit your profile back to normal, if it was altered by the hijacker/scammer.

Steam Guard and other 2FA are USELESS when you give away the log-in info.

It's like giving a thief your car keys and wondering how are Earth they were able to steal your car.

Never log into anything but steam with ur details even if u think u trust it, just don't do it. even if ur "trusted" friends ask u to do something and it asks u to log in, just don't log into anything but ur steam account that u open on ur pc, phone wat eva

[HEXEN]

Of course, your account wasn't hacked; it was willingly shared with others.
