My Steam account seems to be hacked. I just got a confirmation to my email in Russian about my Steam password being changed and I was locked out of my account. I quickly changed it back to, but this will surely only be temporary as I think they have access to my email as well since my inbox messages seem to be being deleted as I speak. Update: ALL MY INBOX HAS BEEN DELETED
I have run malware bytes and antivirus, as well as malware bytes in safe mode but nothing was detected.
WHAT DO I DO? I can't create a Steam Support account as the Russian hacker would surely gain access to it.
I fear it's only a matter of time before he changes my email password and then my Steam. I'm fucked. Is there any way out? I'm going to try and delete my Steam credit card details I hope that works.

Russians are subhuman
>>337909960
Aзaзaзa. Пiздa тoбi.
>>337909960
Full password change on all account.
Also this is exactly why they added steam guard.
>>337909960
Change your e-mail password. NOW!
THEN QUICKLY CHANGE THE SHIT OUT OF YOUR STEAM PASSWORD. DO IT FAST
yep, now he's trying to change my Steam password again

Thanks gaben, just let me buy this applephone galaxy 6.1 worth half my yearly income.
ok well I managed to change my email password and security question
really not feeling very safe right now
I don't have a mobile so can't link my account to that... could do it with a friend's mobile when he gets back from work but that's in 5 hours time not sure I'll last that long against this Russian hacker:(
>>337909960
>he doesn't use 2 step verification
Hahahaha
>>337911023
use steam desktop authenticator
>>337910426
Anon you can get a basic smartpgone for cheap.
I'm pretty sure they do SMS verification as well for normal phones, you can also use email 2 step as well.
>>337909960
>FUCK STEAM GUARD ILL NEVER GIVE YOU MY NUMBER VALVE IS EVIL GABEN IS SATAN!
>account gets hacked
>WHY DO THESE THINGS HAPPEN TO ME?????? FUCK VALVE GABEN IS SATAN EVERYONE IS TO BLAME BUT MYSELF
every
fucking
time
>>337911023
what country do you live in where you don't have mobile? the plans start at 1 dollar a month with phone here
>>337910426
No excuses
Does anyone know how the hacker is doing this?
Can he see all of my actions on the computer? Do I have malware despite no scans detecting anything?
Or did he just gain access to my accounts somehow?
Anyone that doesn't use 2 step verification is an idiot.
My account has been saved twice now.
>>337911023
What you do is create a new email address and link that to steam
You change your steam password
Security question
DO NOT LOG IN TO STEAM ON DODGY RUSSIAN SITES
Capitalist pigdog! Your Steam account belongs to glorious Mother Russia now.
Do svidaniya!
>>337911962
Dude chill, play vidaniya games.

>it's me ur brother
>>337912135

Sincerely the father.
>>337912186
He is the Father

Change your email password and turn on two factor authentication first and foremost, that will secure your email
Next do the same on Steam
>>337909960
>in Russian
ITS HAPPENING!
>>337911747
>DO NOT LOG IN TO STEAM ON DODGY RUSSIAN SITES
Like you should login on absolutely legit proud american sites.
>>337912581
America has laws.
>>337909960
>he has a steam account
fucking lol
>>337909960
Did you gave your password to your brother?
Create a .txt file and write this so the hacker can read it:

>>337913224
Seems legit
Damn i feel sorry for you. You fell for pcmaster meme. Glad am still a console fag. I almost considered pc gaming until i realized the community was boring for me. I felt like a peasant compared to everyone else. I glad i didnt even buy much games on steam.

Change the password on your email moron, then change the primary email for your steam account to a different email.
>>337909960
How does this even happen? What the hell are people downloading these days with malware in it?
I mean it used to be porn, but now you can easily find any god damn kind of porn you want without having to use sketchy sites for your obscure fetish. Are you downloading cracks/pirated shit and not scanning it or something?
Fuck, I'm perplexed as shit over here
>>337909960
Also would like to add you're lucky as shit he didn't instantly block you out of your account.
Mine did get hacked once from a link I clicked (which came from a person I know IRL so I didn't second guess it, turned out he had a hacked account too). It was all aumoated, took my account access away from me and I was completely fucked. Had to go through steam customer service to get it back and it's the worst customer service experience I've ever had in my life. Took two weeks for them to get control of my account back to me with no word from them the entire time. Thought I lost it for good.

It does if you are russian, although this 'translit' is really shitty.

WTF, will my head explode while using this?
>>337913924
Yeah I think I got lucky. Managed to set up an email on another computer and link my steam account to it.
Now I'm just afraid to use this computer unless I leak any other details. Not to mention all the different accounts I have linked to my old email (which I managed to change the password to but still think it is compromised). I just want to know how he got access in the first place.
I remember clicking on some links that opened up a separate window that auto-closed. That was probably it.
>>337909960
Sorry to say buddy but unless you get control of your accounts, you're gonna be screwed.
Valve won't give a shit about you if you don't use Steam Guard since they'll say "Well we gave you security measures but you didn't take them."
Should we ban Russia from the internet?
>>337909960
Have you tried asking them to stop?

>Some commentators indicate that the Freedom 251 sale is a scam.[8] The phone looks like a Chinese phone where the original brand label was covered with whitener. The icons shown on screen shots are copied from Apple's iPhone. There are also reports that many people ordered the phone but did not even receive a confirmation email. Bharatiya Janata Party MP Kirit Somaiya described Ringing Bells as "a Ponzi bogus company scam". He has requested that the Telecom Ministry, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India, and various other ministries investigate the company.[9] As a result of these concerns, the payment gateway facilitator PayUBiz decided to withold payment to Ringing Bells until the items were dispatched.[3]
>The Telecom Ministry after conducting an internal assessment on the phone found that it could not be offered for less than Rs. 2,300 - 2,400.[10]
>Ringing Bells has also been accused of fraud and non-payment of dues by its customer services provider Cyfuture [11] [12] [13]

Their own country is doing it well enough so far. Unfortunately they haven't started doing it for the foreign sites yet so we actually have it worse thanks to all the refugees.
>>337911286
So just because they want you to install their online activation DRM platform instead of just installing and playing a game from a dvd makes you dumb?
I see.
Go to russian /v/ and tell them to suck your dick, then bring something back with you.

Most of the people here probably don't realize it exists anymore
>>337915710
I love their fixation with drakeface.
gabe gave your account details to russians so you add phone guard and give him your phone number, he will do this every time he needs new info for "your security".
If you dont comply the easy way, thats what companies do.
>>337915905
They're like a bizarre parallel universe /v/ where memes went in a different direction. They even still use that ancient yellow trollface that never took off anywhere else.

Sounds like the crazy Russian hacker got ya. Sorry m8 but say goodbye to your steam account.

Step it up, faggot

No :)
>>337909960
thanks to your thread, i managed to finally change my e-mail address
my only guess is that you should try to call or email the steam support and get any document proving that you are the owner of the steam account, anything you have printed before
hell, maybe try to send to Gabe Newell a request
wish you the best of luck, man
>>337913941
please, I think we're all dying to know what it says
>>337917087
Pretty much a plead begging the russian hacker to let go of your account. Claims of cultural adoration for Mother Russia included.
>>337909960
This is why I will always believe that there should be a mandatory driving licence for using PCs.
