Watch for Steam Scammers
by amp on Feb.05, 2010, under Pro Tips, Web Resources
It’s a shame there have been a large influx of people on Steam trying to phish out other peoples accounts. I have since come across a few that have entered our group and I will ban or kick each from the group accordingly.
Tips : Don’t click on anything from anyone you don’t know. This is the surest way to be safe.
I know these are just made to look like legit steam community logon pages and they don’t really do any kind of malware injections but that’s the best way to keep anything from happening.
I recently got a message from “Rain” of our steam group… (Click here for his community page)

I have already reported him to the web host and he has been promptly removed from their hosting. I have also reported him to Valve and Steam accordingly.
If you get a phishing message from anyone in the group, please report them to me via Steam, IRC (#txlans @ gamesurge), or email if you know it. Of course, flood their database or email with as many fake logins as you can. This makes it more fun.
