Hello, i saw an ad that says theres a BF6 playtest going around, but if you click on the link, you get on steam. I f you try to log in, it actually sends you a code by sms on your phone and the specific page opens. The code you received is to deactivate or switch device your Steam Guard.

Carefull out there!

If you did enter the code and your here searching for answers, the only thing to do is to (if you still can) unlog every device with your account on it and change your password. To properlly do it, you gotta go in Steam-Settings-Account-Manage Steam Guard Account Security and then Deauthorise All.

For some reason i got to the point where i had to put my code and i actually did. the thing is i received the message following ''request has expired''. So i my SteamGuard didnt deactivate or switched device. But, the guy on its Xiaomi in Russia was ''authorised login'' on the device.

I actually saw that detail an hour later. I looked up everything and the guy didnt do anything on my account. Everything's the same. Im one of the few that was maybe reactive enough. im always on my guard but sometimes it gets to you..
