Skam in steam chat

[Verrückt]

I describe the situation: a person from my friends list invited me to play. (as it turned out, he was added to my friends without my confirmation) I came by this invitation and then the bacchanal began. They wrote to me that I don't have a CS GO license and I can't play with other users, okay, I restarted insteam and everything went back to normal, as it seemed to me. I decided to play it safe and give the inventory to my brother. Most likely, they somehow affected the api key, and my brother's deal was immediately canceled, and this person accepted it. - You're a sucker blah blah blah, I understand that myself, but how can you hack the acc by being INVITED TO the GAME via an in-app chat??

Your account is already hijacked before they invite you.

And you are using multiple shady 3rd party sites for CS:GO. The one on your past name and one of the group you are in.

That explained it. Stop using them.

Take the following steps to secure your account:

1. Scan for malware. https://www.malwarebytes.com/
2. Check that the email and phone number on the Steam account are still yours.
3. Deauthorize all other devices. https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
4. Change passwords from a clean computer.
5. Generate new backup codes for your Mobile App. https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
6. Revoke the API key (there should be no key). https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey

You have a name advertising a skinsite.
More than likely a scam site where you gave away your login info before.

Phishing is not hack. Just stop typing your login info on scam sites, and stop logging via scam sites it's that simple.

- hi vote for my team. *Insert scam link*

- Hi you won a prize *insert scam link*

- Hi try my demo *insert scam link*

- Hi you have pending ban, or whatever add this person and login *insert scam link*


This should be clicking in making you realize where you may have gone wrong unless you completely forgot it out of your mind, and wouldn't be first time people done it either, they swear it didn't happen but it did, they misunderstood and realize later, or completely forgot then dawns on them later.

when you have more than about 100 people in friends list, then this becomes more and more likely, it's just human error, learn from it. When you throw house parties with even 50 guests, stuff will always happen. No hacking needed really.

They likely invited you "to the game" after they hijacked the account.
