Sharing your account is against the ToS. Your account, is meant to be in use by you and you only.

I guess your intelligence level is that of a child. Sharing accounts first is wrong because of what exactly what happened to you OP. It is against TOS because of stuff like this. Learn from this mistake and do not share your account in the future OP.

Of course since OP did not say what bans they were trying to avoid probably means OP is also a cheater in games too.

Be glad it's only this sharing accounts is forbidden and can lead to account termination in extreme cases

When you signed up to Steam and created an account you agreed to Steam's terms of service. You were supposed to of read that entire TOS (all of it) before creating an account. If you had read the TOS then you would of known that you can't do this.

It seems you just clicked the create account button and did not read the TOS. That's a pretty bad idea. You were supposed to read that. Now that you've created an account you have to comply with all of the rules written in the TOS.

Written into that terms of service is a statement that you are not allowed to share your account with someone else. You can't do that with Steam. Steam detected that you did this and blocked you for this activity. This is your fault, not Steam's fault.

Why are you blaming Valve for your own actions?

1) disconnected from game.

2) let my friend login from his PC.


You should be thanking Valve for noticing the login from another location after all it could have being a malicious actor, hence the message you received. ''This sign in attempt appears to be a malicious actor or website trying to gain access to your account from Steam client''.


As for your account:

You may not reveal, share or otherwise allow others to use your password or Account except as otherwise specifically authorized by Valve.

You know what's also against the TOS? Using a VPN to spoof your location and make it appear you live in a different country so you can benefit from lower store prices there. It's because of idiots like you that we can't have nice things.

What does any of that have to do with the OP?

I was referring to the OP

This is the first time i hear that people get "banned" just from login into steam from some other PC/country.

You sure that you have not left out a few parts?
