Just because an account has the same profile name and profile picture does not mean it is your friend.
You are still responsible not to enter your credentials on fake websites or giving them to someone else.
People make mistakes, it doesn't make them stupid. But it's the only way that people can bypass Steam guard. If it there was an actual security flaw or possible hack, you have to understand that this would be huge news, right? It would be all over not just gaming news sites but business and general news sites as well, it's happened anytime a major company's database or user accounts were genuinely hacked into.
When thousands or millions of people's accounts are vulnerable that isn't something that just doesn't get covered. You would know if there was a hack.
It's better to learn from your mistake and be more careful in the future what 3rd party sites you go to. It doesn't exactly seem like a coincidence to me that a lot of people who end up on this forum saying they've had their account stolen eventually admit they've been using a 3rd party site for trading items. Even if the site you went to is actually trustworthy there is very much a possibility you accidentally went to a phishing website posing as the "legit" one. Although it's equally as likely that a site you think is legit, is not.
