Hi, greetings. if you are receiving a message from Steam stating that there have been too many login attempts, it means that there have been multiple failed login attempts using your Steam account credentials. This is a security measure implemented by Steam to prevent unauthorized access to your account.

To resolve this issue, you should follow these steps:

Wait for some time: Steam imposes a time limit on login attempts, so you will need to wait for a period of time before attempting to login again. This period can vary depending on the number of login attempts that have been made, so it's best to wait a few hours before trying again.

Change your Steam account password: It is possible that someone may be attempting to access your account without your permission. To prevent this, you should change your Steam account password. Make sure to use a strong password that is not easily guessable.

Enable two-factor authentication: Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security to your Steam account. It requires a unique code generated by an app on your phone in addition to your password when logging in to your account. This makes it much more difficult for someone to gain unauthorized access to your account.

Check your email for any unusual activity: Steam will send you an email notification if someone tries to access your account from a new device. If you receive such an email and you did not initiate the login attempt, take immediate steps to secure your account.

If you have followed these steps and are still experiencing issues, you should contact Steam support for further assistance. They may be able to provide additional guidance on how to resolve the issue and regain access to your account.
