| "Never tell your password to anyone. Wednesday, May 19, 2010 4:49 PM - C13INTZ | §YN |: Join my group on steam
http://steamcommunityladyy.pt.tl/ 4:50 PM - Vir | §YN |: Uh 4:50 PM - Vir | §YN |: That site looks a bit suspicious. I mean with the "ladyy.pt.tl" at the end. C13INTZ | §YN | is now Offline."
C13NTZ IMed me to join his group. I actually did click on the link and it asked me to log into Steam Community. Seeing the ending root for the url is a bit suspicious, I actually opened a new tab and logged into the "legit" Steam Community using it's typical url www.steamcommunity.com. Now when I reached my control panel I clicked on the link again. It asked me to log in again and I closed the tab and IMed C13NTZ. After that he logged. My theory is that he's possibly been hacked and the person or "bot" is going around taking people's account info using the real Steam Community homepage to make the whole deal look genuine. The C13NTZ I know would never randomly IM me asking me to join a group and the "laddy.pt.tl" is a huge giveaway. Steam Community urls are always "www.steamcommunity.com/". I would just like to inform everyone not to log into that page. |

| Aw that sucks. I think it's a bot so you don't have to worry about your games being played. |

| But then a popup comes up telling you it's not a legit Steam site. But who follows those anyways? |

| they got my e-mail too XP sent requests to change my contact e-mail, security question (which would explain why it was in Portuguese ), and my password. well i guess we'll just have to wait and see how this ends. obviously other people have been tricked as well so i'm sure its not gunna be too big of a deal (hopefully) |

| No you will be fine, contact steam support, input some personal info to them and have them revoke the account back to you.
I've been getting those lately, I ignore them.
But a guy I was talking to yesterday was going to register http://www.steampovvered.com
Anyways, get your account back before they do some fucked up shit. |

| fyi, i got my account back
as much as i've heard people say they hate steam support, i fuckin love it. steam has helped me with so many problems. steam itself may suck, but i will always stand behind their support.
i think the only reason people hate the steam support is cuz it takes around 18-24 hours for them to respond, but thats nothin. i care more about quality than convenience. |

| 18-24 hours isn't all that bad. Most websites say at least one week. |
