Steam api scam through faceit
Got my items scamed through some faceit hub link. My account was logged in outside of country, steam guard was bypassed completely. I changed my password. All I can do is look at the account that has my items to report.

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


Steam does not return inventory items or wallet funds.

Steam Item Restoration Policy


Never enter your Steam login information on a third-party site.

Steram guard was NOT disabled. When you logged in on the phishing link you gave them your username, password AND LIVER guard code. From that point on they are logged into your account and Steams system believe it is you as only you should have the login credentials.

Do ALL the steps in post #1 to secure your account.
Stop logging in on dodgy phishing sites. If you insist on using third party sites do it the safe way

1. Open Web browser
2. Login on Steams Official page
3. Visit Third party site
4. Look for and use the one click login button
5. If 4 doesn't work and you're asked for you username, password and Guard code your on a phishing site. LEAVE and DO NOT use again

Example of what it should look like

EDIT: All your items are gone. Steam does not restore items. Report the account tthat received them and more on
