I clicked on a phishing link and logged on it
Hey there,

I've just been victimed of phishing. As the title said I've unfortunatly logged on it...
I immediatly changed my password and my email adress, sent a ticket to the support in order to check if the hacker tried to connect on my account.

Nothing on my backpack has been stolen yet. I didn't received any mail stating that either my email adress or password has been changed( except of course when I changed them both by myself)

I'm really worried about this, is there anything else I must do ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

no just change the password to the email if its the same as your steam account heck just change email password anyway :)

also deauthorize all pcs with the steam guard in the client itself

I really hope that the hacker didn't have to connect to my account...
Right now I can't think about anything else. T_T

If you want to keep everything safe, do all of these
1. change contact email
2 .change password
3. remove any credit card details on the account
4 turn off steam guard so items can not be traded
5. send a support ticket
6 leave your most valuble items with a trustable friend or alt account. (optional)

Do these and you should stay safe for the time being

I'd rather not turn off steam guard.
Anyway I passed an antivirus scan, malware scan, used spybot. And I found a trojan.
Better swap again my passwords...

If you feel like your account is being hacked, first off request a ban on the site if you're curteous. You should then immediately do the following: Change your password, check your e-mail to see if there's been a suspicious password change, contact steam support and have them check to see if anyone has logged into your account. Good luck mate.

Damn 200$ ?!
But I'm glad to hear you've been able to withdraw both your account and items.


Well it's been about 18 hours andI didn't received any mail for either a password or email changed. I hope that means that I'm safe.

Sir BananaMan: Unfortunatly you have to sent a ticket to the support in order to retreive your account.
