Have I done all steps to prevent account being phished
so I was not smart. did not check what site I was logging into, and logged my steam account into it. actually it auto logged me in. didnt ask for a password, just wanted me to click the green log in button. i clicked the button then realized my mistake. I have checked for malware using norton and windows defender, I have changed my password on my steam, bank, and email. deauthorized all other devices. got new back up codes, and had no api key to revoke. am I good? I work and do college work from on this pc so I am freaking out a little. they only got my steam log in (if even that as it did not have me type in password, only click log in). is there any more steps to take? should i factory reset my pc? any advice would help so much and I would be grateful. i feel as I have done everything but my chest is still pounding.

If it auto logged you in then your login credentials are safe, that means the login uses Steam's OAuth login method and the website hasn't been given any of your details.

That doesn't mean the website is safe though, just that your login credentials are protected,

does this mean I have done all that I need to do? would you do more? just want to make sure I have done everything I can. I mean I have resorted to steams community page after surfing reddit for two hours

There's nothing you need to do, your account hasn't been compromised.

Being auto logged in is a good thing, it means that it was an official Steam login prompt not a fake one designed to steal your credentials.
