This guy wants me to give him 4 keys after i go to this site and download these files and when i get the files i log in my steam info to get into tf2 and get the "Tux"

Matoarator: i need your promise i will recieve 4 keys
Matoarator: second THIS IS ALL SAFE
Matoarator: i promise i am not a scammer
Basix: Yeah i promise if u can get me one
Matoarator: alright
Matoarator: go here
Matoarator: and download this file
Matoarator: woops
Matoarator: first
Matoarator: do you have Winrar and windows
Basix: yes
Matoarator: alrighty

Matoarator: 4 files should open
Matoarator: let me know when you see them
Basix: this isnt some kinda spyware to get my password?

Matoarator: no
Matoarator: this is within your computer
Matoarator: it needs your username and pass ONLY BECAUSE it needs to know where to put the tux

Yes. Remove this guy. Delete the downloaded file (If you uploaded it) and change your password immediately.
Do not click on links of people you do not know.

That + make an alt with 1 weapon inside and give this pw to him to see if he will take the bait. Worst case scenario, u will lose 1 weapon. On the other hand, u will have enough proof for steamrep admins. Plus its a nice evidence if he keylogged your computer.


That being said, Tux cant be traded, not yet anyway. The way to get it without a linux computer is making a virtual linux OS in your PC and login from there.

Vid guide: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=zPMFaHKRy0Q

Written guide: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/app/440/discussions/0/864959809731110085/

Note that the vid was based on whats written on the guide, tho was made by 2 different people. I recommend following the vid and whatever u dont understand, look for the written guide. It worked perfectly in my pc. Potentially i have 17 tuxes on several accounts now. :P

VirusTotal does not detect anything - yet.
But what's really interesting, is that the supplied SteamKit2.dll is different from the official version.

official:
Version: 1.3.0.37474
Date: 2013-01-17 03:49
Size: 1.474.048 bytes

gibtux:
Version: 1.3.0.36844
Date: 2013-02-14 20:28
Size: 1.650.176 bytes

Especially the significantly bigger size of 172 kB for an supposedly earlier build number but with a later built date is what makes me very suspicious.
Also, I have not verified that the supplied source code is indeed what compiles to the supplied .exe. So using this program is very risky and not recommended in my opinion.

virus scanners are always one step behind virus writers. its just how the game works.
