There has been a recent attempt to steal my account just 15 min ago , I made a stupid mistake to trust some one I dont know that invited me to a chat with the topic of voting for his clan , when I asked for the link I didnt noticed it :
I entered and saw that I needed to login to steam home page , when I tipped in the account and password just then I noticed its not the right page link to steam home page, after that I imidiatly went to change my password on steam application and right on the middle of it It disconnected , when I tried to login back it was sed that my account was being used by another computer , after that I went to steam homepage and warned some of my friends ( I was still logged in to steam original home page) that some one was in with my account , I managed to get in after a couple of tries on steam application and home page after I deleted the billing information and visa information on my account threw the normal home page after that I managed to enter steam and change my password couple of times and security question.
For now I dont know if any thing was stolen or changed I dont see any thing that was bought.
I cant manage to remember the nickname of the one that gave me the link , It got closed with the steam when it disconnected me.
I do did saw some info about him and his group but I dont remember so im browsing threw the groups now to see if ill catch something on.

And sorry if its the wrong place to post this post :3

Im very sorry I forgot all about it , but still there need to be a warning for that site for future mistakes by some one else so there account cannot be stolen .

There is a warning in Steam already. And people who manage to ignore that will most likely ignore some forum post anyway.

when you clicked on the link steam gives a popup that is is not a steam site.
most people should not disable that.

report the site to whoever is hosting it.

if you did not install a chat logging program yourself there is no way to check the history.

only if you played a game on the same server you can find him.
