illegal trade items stolen
At 11:48/49/50 today 30/07/2025, i had three emails from Steam saying that 3 individuals had had initiated trades. The EMAIL from STEAM stated that I had received over 450 items from them and I had nothing taken. Curious I checked the trades, which I had NOT been involved in, and noticed that the trades were all the items from my account. Also the items where ALL TAKEN from my account NOT GIVEN as stated in the emails from STEAM. How does this happen. And why will I never get anything back as its clearly stolen, ... Oh my acct is 2fa and my PC runs eset32 security. Im baffles annoyed and very angry having spent time MONEY only to be informed that anything lost has gone. How can this be prevented.

This can be prevented by not giving away your credentials.

a "hacker" would have to:

Guess your username.

Guess your password.

Guess a 30s short lived code for the 2FA.

All of them have lots of combination.

Accounts are phished. You need to figure out where you leaked your info. Nobody can do that for you.

By only sticking to the official Steam website operated by Valve and never deviating to other websites that imitate the login. All you need is an active session and no other website using the Steam login would ever ask you for your account or password. And if it does its pishing. :hot_poop:

in a phishing attack, the user is the vulnerability. not the computer. so an antivirus doesn't protect against it.

Not how it works, there is no software that phish's for your account. If you were hijacked the most likely reason is you entered your password on a phishing site, skin trading site, etc and they used that. It didn't have to be recent either, as some of the scammers sit on accounts for months before acting making it harder to trade where they compromised their account
I don't recall ever doing that, I checked my recent login history and found the unauthorized login was from Troy, Ohio.

Doesnt matter where the login was from. There are lots of variants like if you've ever used 3rd party sites, if your friends asked you to "vote" for their team, etc. The entire point is you don't know where you were phished

T: I don't do CS.
M: Could you please help by giving a Boost Rep to my team?
T: What is that?
M: [redacted]

Please do not repost phishing links in your post. You're just helping them to hijack others.

I wonder if I fell for a phishing scam because I don't do Counter Strike of any games in the series, and I'm not familiar with the site, and the site asked for my user id and password. And my inventory was stolen a week afterwards. I unfriended him afterwards but I recovered the link to their account. If so I could report that account if this is enough evidence.
The vote for my team link is a common hijack vector. You thought you were logging in to Steam but it was really the site you visited that collected your login info and hijacked your account.

Yep, that is a text book scam, they took the info you entered on that site, logged into steam, then waited a week and stole your items

This.

There are no shortcuts and there is no easy way, just the risk to get scammed.

NO it was hacked, i wasnt on a weird site I have ESET 32 on and I did get a notice via rust but the 3 individuals were fast and even as i changed the password I could do nothing and RUST wouldnt assist.

Hijacked, you would need to prove hacking was done as that is yet to be proved by anyone.
