    Hi my Steam account is hijacked, I forgot which user on here works at Steam, but they froze my account last time this happened. I have no clue how it did this time. Anyone know someone who can freeze it for now? Sorry if this is like spam.

    I found the dude, name is Lunarbunny but he doesn't look too active on the site anymore. Anyway, have a laugh at what they've done to my account. http://steamcommunity.com/id/Eketahuna

    Ok, I managed to recover my password, thank god they didn't change my email. I'll leave my account the way it is so people can see.

    So you lost your account twice? How the hell did that happen? And what "did they do" to your account?

    I lost it a first time because I was dumb and clicked on a link to "join a group", was a phishing site etc. I was an idiot. This same thing that happened today, happened to me at the start of this year. I was doing nothing at all, and then BAM, kicked out and told I'm logged in elsewhere. Last time I just recovered my password and I was done. This time I panicked and rushed here, remembered I just needed to recover my password, and done.

    Also, check out my profile, do you really think I'd have a mess like that? The penises I knew of, but I didn't change my info like that.

    I think this is a sign that you should start using steam guard.

    This. Unless you give out your email password as well they aren't getting into your Steam account.

    Definitely turn Steam Guard on. With this feature enabled, you have to give explicit permission to log into your Steam account on a different computer.

    And duder. Stop clicking random-asslinks :P

    Oh so very tempting, what are behind those beautiful alluring yellow letters?
