Anyone else get from a friend associcated to your account that they gave you a link that sends you to a webpage that says 251,400 of 300,000 gift cards have already been redeemed.

That means over 200,000 steam accounts have been hi-jacked

It's true because a friend of mine got hi-jacked.

I have an idea of a way you get targeted by these bots. You see those threads in the CS2 trading forum (for example) of people with 300+ knives wanting to trade? These are where the stolen items end up.

How do I know this? I haven't received a bot adding me in over 10 years, since I have stopped playing CSGO since +/- 2014 and trading. But recently I got back to it, and a few weeks ago I unboxed a 160€ skin that I wanted to trade for a knife. I sent a few trade requests to a couple of these accounts, my trade offer was never answered but since then I have been getting quite a lot of bots adding me and spamming these sort of links. I never even made a post in the CS2 forum, just sent the trade offer through the button so there's no other way these bots could have targeted me other than through the guys who received my trade offer.

Long story short, these accounts are baiting people with high value items into sending them trade offers. When you send them a trade offer, they know you have a knife/high value item and you become a target.

It's insane how people nowadays are still falling for such scams/phishing sites. I thought this was a thing of the past, especially now that pretty much everyone has access to the Internet and should know about Internet safety.

A friend just sent the URL to me, and I tried to sign in, but it kept telling me to try again later. Does this mean I've already been hijacked?

The thing is this one was insanly well made, the only thing giving it away was the slightly different URL.

Change your password and revoke any API key if it exists here, it should be completely empty.
