your account is compromised
DO NOT TRADE
If you have access to the account

Steps to take NOW to secure the account:
1. Scan for malware https://www.malwarebytes.com/
2. Deauthorize all other devices https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
3. Change passwords from a clean computer
4. Generate new backup codes for your Mobile App https://store.steampowered.com/twofactor/manage
5. Revoke the API key https://steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey (there should be nothing in the APIKEY)


Please review how you are logging into Steam, you somehow gave them your log in information. This could of been due to the computer being compromised and redirecting to a fake login, or you using a 3rd party site to login to steam.

thanks for reply! I never used the steam chats, so I had no idea who to report it to. I just kept getting notifications from the steam chat, which I assume was because I had it set to give me notifications for friends log in.

Can you clarify, the directions you give are for anyone that clicked the links? Or is t if you saw the pop ups? Because I have 2-factor login (a pain to have to check email every time to login), I dont use mobile, and I dont save passwords on my computer.
