Oh god, what the fuck. Steam just logged me into some Russian guy's account, sort of?
What the fuck is happening.
Jesus I thought I was the only one.
same thing is happening to me, I even have some spanish in there.
>>321428437
Steam showed me the wrong listing for a foil mystery card and I ended up selling it at 0.20 instead of 1.50 yuro
fuck
DO NOT LOG OUT OF YOUR STEAM ACCOUNT
>>321428860
I already did, are the russians taking over my account?
>>321428704
I was just logged in as somebody named "For You" with an Undertale avatar. Sorry to whichever anon that was.
>>321428860
WHAT
>>321428950
just write cyka until they leave
>>321428998
>I was just logged in as somebody named "For You"
It always says For You at the top retard
th-thanks for the warning?
>>321429306
Nigga I know, I clicked his profile and his name was literally "For You"
>Logged into this guy's profile
HOLY SHIT
WHAT DO I DO
>WHAT DO I DO
WHAT DO I DO
>WHAT DO I DO
What the fuck? Did that just happen out of the blue while you were logged in, or did you log out and back in to find yourself staring at a cyka profile?
>>321429643
And now my Steam just changed to fucking German
what the fuck this is not okay
This mother fucker from Montreal has 0 games, 555 hours in Unturned and nothing else, $5 in his wallet, and OVER TWELVE THOUSAND COMMENT NOTIFICATIONS.
WHAT THE FUCK.
>>321429643
It's just rotating through random people every few minutes.
So if I login into another guy's account and download all the games, can I play them in offline mode?
Looking around steams forums, its happening to everyone.
Welp
>PCucks yesterday laughing about a fake hoax
>now crying over shitty steam system being shit
>>321428437
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?
Should I add $100 to ytvb0b's account?
IM FUCKING SCARED /v/!!
>check reddit
>it's real and not just memes
lol what
i sure hope people don't get logged into my shit while im online, i dont want them to read my ERP logs
The important question is: Can you actually buy stuff like that?
shit's fucked up, refreshing got mine to go from russian to portuguese to french and back, but i cant get it to go to english
>>321429852
would be a nice christmas gift to him
unless he's involved, which i doubt
>>321429852
Nah buy him bad rats if anything
>tfw have to wait 72 hours to trade fucking cards
i don't want to give my number to you, gabe, damn
>>321429756
hahaha
So what's the proper way to handle this? Change our passwords and remove credit card info?
Every time I log out of someone's account I get put into another one.
>>321429925
I can't access my cart.
>>321429756
It's a dummy account.
It's okay for me now.
Log out, delete cache and F5.
>>321430156
It gives me an error when I try to access my account details.
>>321429925
If I try to add something to cart, it goes back to my account.
>There's probably a Russian looking at your account right now.
>>321430156

>>321430474
>mfw I literally just added my CC to make buying during the sale easier
>mfw I can't access my payment options to delete it now because I just get Alberto T. Barbosa's payment info instead
If that happened to me I'd do some dumb shit on the guy's account. Check his inventory and gift his shit to random people, try to buy games if they have steam dollars, send cheeky messages to random friends, etc.
>>321430624
This guy's got his priorities straight

Nobody is trying to hack you if this happens, the servers are just overloaded because of the sale. Just wait it out I guess.picture unrelated to grab your attention.
I am literally not seeing it. Everything's normal.
People are randomly getting admin accounts as well.
This is worrying shit.,

I'm usually not okay with messing with accounts when it comes to stuff like this, but you need to do something to stop him.
EVERYTIME I CLICK AROUND IN THE STORE I'M ON A DIFFERENT ACCOUNT

Some guy I'm logged in as right now is playing a game

Don't do it. You don't want to get stuck in some fraud scheme if you are caught.

My account was logged out on my Steam browser, I tried logging in twice but it returns me to the main page not logged in. I've also had weird currency displays.
Are those hackers still trying?
>>321431270
It looks like someone or something has fucked around with the sessions on their server.
If I had to guess, the server is allocating and writing to the same few session files for every user, which is why you're getting a random person and why it keeps changing.
>>321431673
I don't want to, but that's sketchy.
I'm logged into a guy from Chile's account.
Fuck, I'm just glad I have Steam Guard enabled.
I start to see how this works
everytime you click on a different game it loggs you onto another account but every game has its own account
now to find the game with my account
>>321431542
Good thing I'm super paranoid and didn't put my credit card on Steam. Always bought Steam cards.
Living in paranoia paid off for just this moment.Should I change my email and password later?
Is this only happening to Americans? Because I'm having no issues

oh yeah? and what if someone gets access to your acc with those steambucks you have already put on there?
>>321432000
Europe here, I'm logged into my account but the store page shows the browser version of the store page. And whenever I reload, it displays it on a different language. Russian, French, and whatever.
>>321428437
Merry Christmas you faggot.
Someone just bought my account Witcher 3 thinking it was his account
I'm loving this
wtf is going on steam.
what the fuck is happening?
I'm not getting any of this, but steam says im logged out on the store page.
Mine says that I have 4 CDN$. Is that canadian dollars or something?
Who the fuck is DDoSing steam? This is the first time in 6 years that steam has acted up for me.
Also who are these fucks that don't run semi regular scans on their computer?
>>321432103
At least you could still play games

>>321428437
Whenever the steam store shits the bed, not only are you signed out on the store view in the client, but for whatever reason it fucks up your language setting. It usually fluctuates between Portuguese and French for me, with Greek appearing occasionally.
This happens every year at peak times.
>>321431986
I'm currently logged in as people with Steam Guard active.
Apparently it just logs in for you, so no need to use Guard.
>>321432195
britbong here, not logged in but I'm getting canadian prices
I'm scared to log on
The guy I got had L4D2 on his cart, I tried buying but it says there's not enough on his steam wallet. I try adding more, but then there's this error and then nothing.
So I guess if
You didn't have anything on your cart recently
And not a lot of money on your steam wallet
You should be safe

feels good man
Steam is experiencing some heavily troubling problems. There are widespread reports of people having their Steam language cycle randomly and many are randomly logged into other people's accounts.
Stay safe. This looks like a major security breach and we heavily advise everyone to stay logged into their accounts. Try not to turn off your PC's. Clear your store carts so that other people can't finish transactions with your info.
>>321432301
>>321432301
I can still launch games.

I'm downloading a game right now and going to play it shortly

>DIGITAL IS THE FUTURE GUYS!!!
Yeah, it's real fucking great.
>some guy bought me Ys mistakenly
As a web developer I'm feeling extreme amounts of pity for the poor fucker who's just got a phonecall about this shit and now has to go and fix it.
How long has this been in this guy's cart?
Can you speak to their friends?
>guy from portugal with jew shekels picture as his profile pic
>>321432301
Are you implying I can? I can still play all of my games, even the online ones.
Could you still play your online games during the outage, Sony friend? Even though you paid your monthly rent?
You do realize Steam just acts as a launcher for a bunch of locally stored executable files, right?
Don't you guys use an authenticator?

>>321432545
If it's session hijacking, that's probably the worst thing you can do.
Why the fuck aren't steam firewalling their db servers whilst this is happening? They're going to get their arses handed to them by courts and regulators.
>>321432712
How does this shit even happen? I can't think of any method by which people would get randomly logged into other accounts unless there's active sabotage.
>>321430474

>>321432843
You realize that it doesn't matter if you have an authenticator or anything like that set up. I mean, these people have passwords and I didn't guess any of them, but I'm logged in as them.
If whatever bug is able to bypass passwords, why wouldn't it be able to bypass steamguard, etc as well? There's no difference if the bug is that deep in the system.
ow the edge
>>321432545
Not just rumors, it happened to me at least twice in the past 10 or so minutes.
Holy shit, so Steam's going bananas for everyone?
I was put into spanish, polish, portuguese and english already.
And I was also logged on two different accounts.
Never have I been gladder pretty much nothing is linked to my account. I was pretty confused when I clicked on my wallet and some indian dude's details came up.
My store page went from burger dollars to French and Euros.
UK btw, still online though on the bottom right thing

thanks for those bad rats and sakura spirit games I guess.
Using the steam client so I'm logged in for my library and profile, but the store tab is weird and changes languages. It also wants me to log in even though I'm logged in and even suggests I install steam.
overall bredy gud. I saw some russian guy's account with over 1400+ hours in dota2 and nothing else.
>>321433237

It is. 70 rub = 1 usd is huge
At least we'll get a few sheckles from the class action lawsuit that's going to come. I can see the guy's email address and everything. He uses hotmail by the way.
>>321432843
You don't need authentication for this.
I'm accessing several accounts at random with Mobile and Guard Protections.
It just skips the whole login, apparently.
>>321432304

That's weird, I think I was this account once
Maybe it switches with a limited pool of accounts
Oh. It's just a cache problem.
You're not actually logged in as their accounts, their cache server is just not differentiating between accounts anymore.

Most likely cause, they're setting the logged in user ID to some arbritrary value when certain actions get performed.
Could be some polluted caches for the DB, most common cause is bad code being rolled out.
