Author Topic: Redconer's steam account has been hijacked [UPDATE] pg6  (Read 4293 times)

I'm gonna start with the message I've typed to be sent to Steam Support due to the message explaining the story

Dear Steam Support,

   This morning, I saw my computer having the login window appear in my screen. I was convinced that it was my connection to steam, but when I entered my password, the error message stated that my password was incorrect. Panicking, I went into my email, and there was a message from Steam Support that my account's information had been changed.

The message I received:  http://i.imgur.com/sZCuOtC.png

   I'll let you know that I started with one of my parent's email ([REDACTED]), then a few years later I switched my password from [REDACTED] to [REDACTED]. For now, my password will be [REDACTED]. If there's a strange change by email and password, that is not my doing.

Sincerely,

Jun Ho "Redconer" Im
Apparently the person that hijacked me performed this act late at night, but happened to be fooling around for one hour (click to see last online), and I hoped they didn't used my account to trade anything away or sending suspicious messages to my friends. If you received a message from my account late at night, please let me know.

Also I don't know what to type in for CD Key in Steam Support.

P.S. I was trying to save my 100th topic for something special, but this pushed me too hard to not mention this...

Are you sure you didn't click any links by bots? The ones that link you to a page that downloads a .scr file?

And are you sure you haven't been to some website such as staemcommunity.com?
