I like how OP blames the credit card company and Steam but not himself.

I guess people shouldn't blame Sony then either.


Irrelevant. Sony was hacked at their corporate site. Accounts were compromised because of their lack of security.

The OP lost $700 because he didn't secure his email/Steam properly.

Apples & oranges mate.

Until Steam comes out an says they weren't hacked. I'd assume they were. Monoprice was hacked a few years ago and I didn't find out until I started getting charges on my card. They didn't inform me until after the fact.


I have yet to read any stories on a recent hacking with Steam. But again, this is OP being careless, not a company server being hacked.

So you're saying that Steam is at fault because you gave away your username and password?

Yeah, totally.

Please do not send me group invites.

it's really not a big deal.

1) call your credit card company and get the charges removed
2) get a new credit card number
3) change your Steam login

Really nothing to worry about. It's not like you wont get your money back.

You would have to use my cell phone to hack my account. So I'm safe.

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

Currently studying Computer Science & Software engineering. Hope to work on mobile devices of the future! When a certain game's credits roll, look out for my name! ;)

You will -blam!- bricks when you see what game it is! =)

Simple, dont link a credit card but a laser card. This way you need to have an additional account on a separate from steam merchant through which transactions are made. I feel sad for you man, it really must suck.

So Says Shadroxon.

I have no idea how Steam payments work because I'm a lolconsole gamer, but it sounds like some of your information might have gotten leaked to this "hacker."

I can almost guarantee that they got your information somewhere else. The most likely scenario is that they phished it from you, or you have a RAT.
