Yeah, a month ago I fell for one of those phishing schemes. Someone sent a email saying they need to verify my account before relaunching steam, I stupidly entered my pass & name, it looked genuine. I've sent 2 hijack reports to steam already but they are lazy assholes. So... if you see me online, it's probably the hijacker. My steam account is "armik", so... the hijackers steam account now is Armik... Add him to your friends list and annoy the hell out of him, or congratulate him if you hate me.

Anyone got any tips? I'm not planning on buying css again.

Yeah, I didn't get a message saying "Click here, you're the 1millionth steam user!"... I got a message saying Steam was going to shut down, and they needed everyone's account info to be saved in their database, the message seemed genuine, and I had not given my email I used for steam to anyone... not no one...

Well, what you did was equally as dumb as "CLICK HERE, YOU'RE THE 1 MILLIONTH STEAM USER!"

Was this before or after the message at the top of the window that says "never give out your username and password"?

Can anyone ever think of a time a game has ever ever asked to give your username and password and it WAS legit? I can't think of a single time like ever hearing of it.
