My Account got hacked HELP
« on: June 26, 2012, 12:52:28 AM »
My account got hacked by some dude in france and I just sent in a report to steam. Is there anything else I can do to speed up this process?

Moved to the proper section.

In any case, when this happens to me a few years ago, I just submitted a ticket to steam and waited. I also recommend changing passwords on anything else of the passwords for them are related to your steam one.

UU.OTA-VANGUARD.6.94250 | Online (THETA.EOW)
C45.CCA.CLASSIFIED.326 | In Service (VOID-DvL.326)
C45.CCA.APEX-01.199 | In Service

Alright, but is there any way to get my steam account back without steam support?

No, why would you want to do that?
Besides, there's nothing a person that hacked your steam account can do. I mean, what's he going to do? Buy you some new games? Awesome.

Steam WILL get your account back if you have either a physical disc of a steam game with the key card (e.g. the orange box) or proof of ownership of a creditcard used on your account. It's a pretty easy process, my account was hacked back in '09 and I got it back within a week with no damages done.

I would also highly suggest you to use steam guard and make sure your email password is unique and never used ANYWHERE else.

This is used so even if someone else knows your steam password, they are not able to log in your account without knowing your email password as well.

And next time: Don't be so stupid to get your account hacked. Since this won't happen unless you did something stupid.
Check out my Youtube channel with all kinds of cool videos including LP's which I'm currently working at. Don't forget to give feedback as well. ;)
