It's a phishing (fake) website of Steam.

Scams (tricks) users into sending their friends referral links to gain points. Hense your friends sending them (if young and dumb) are being tricked into it. Then with those so-called point you can open a 'free' Steam Wallet card... but there's a survey to do (which loops around, steals your personal details, and will never release your prize).

[Cassidy]

Yes. The site has also been added to Steam's site filter so now the link will show as {LINK REMOVED}

"Other than that there isn't anything Valve can do about it. Because there are no laws against this."

Isn't it using trademark images/name of Steam? Hense you can issue a takedown.

If they did that for every site that was using Steam illegally, that would cost way too much. Can't really go after non US citizens anyways.

Right now, I'm more concerned with your misspelling of the word "hence" and what I'm going to get for dinner at Subway.

dude the only legit halloween thing is the one done by steam on their website or on the app.

Nevermind then...

Blacklisted and added to Google Phishing. You should get a pretty red screen with Google Warning, if visiting it now.

F*ck, i collected 9 freaking points... But as soon as it wanted my phone number i smelled the fish scent :D :D (is there any potential risk of me and my friends getting some spyware?) T_T

There is already another one of the sites out there. Don't use them.
