Account reasonability is the account holder job, items and money are gone and is not given back. Secure your account and son't do shady things like download stuff you shouldn't, or go to sites that steal account information, etc (but we know you'll say you don't and didn't.)

- Scan your computer. (Optional).
- Deauthorize all other devices.
- Generate new backup codes for your Mobile App.
- Change your password. (Email optional) on a secure device.
- Revoke the API key.

- Report a scammer, (if you know the Steam user and or on Discord).
- Report a phishing site[safebrowsing.google.com], (if you know the site).
For me TODAY too. The dirty support ignores it. Steam is being sued for aiding and abetting fraud.

Not everyone that gets hacked is at fault. I don't download stuff I shouldn't or visit account-info-stealing sites, yet I received 84 email notifications today informing me that vxjcvyeg6699 had sold everything in my inventory.

How did they access my account, and why didn't I receive a login code by email like every other time I've logged in?

As much as that is true, from the years I've seen these threads there has been almost no faults on Steam side of security when it comes to account hijacks, and is user error (even if you don't know it).

And it's not "hacked" but hijacked. If people were getting "hacked" high tier users would be hit.

My question is how do I get all my stuff back? @chris

Surely if its happened to @404@Malware (awesome name lmao)
@zemisong
AND @Sosmoove, then maybe it isn't the users fault this time? @blueberrypoptart
I dont know too much about security, nor do I claim too, however this seems quite excessive for a dodgy website to attack 3 people in the same day. Surely if the website was that popular we would have thousands of affected accounts everyday and steam would technically be liable as they should've upgraded security to counter it.
