Steam items stolen and sold at a low price – Be aware!

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share my recent experience with you in hopes that it will help prevent anyone else from going through the same thing.

Store Transaction

​

1 of 5

During my work hours, someone managed to steal my items from Steam and put them up for sale at a ridiculously low price, causing them to sell quickly. The scammer then used the money to buy low-priced items from one account, essentially stealing all the money.

The worst part is that all of this happened without my confirmation or knowledge.

I have screenshots of the transaction, but I have blurred my username for privacy reasons.

Additionally, I have checked my store transaction history, and I can confirm that this is indeed a scam. If this continues to happen, what is the use of having a Steam account? Should we quit our jobs and stay glued to our Steam stores to prevent this from happening? I don't think that's practical or reasonable.

Therefore, I think it's time for Steam support to step in and solve this problem. They have the necessary information, including the scammer's ID and transaction history. I urge anyone who has experienced something similar to report it to Steam support immediately.

In conclusion, I urge everyone to be vigilant and take steps to secure their Steam accounts. Don't let scammers take advantage of your busy schedule or inattention. We need to work together to ensure that our Steam accounts remain secure.

Thank you for reading, and I hope that my experience helps you avoid similar scams.
