Hi, just friendly reminder, that this scam is still going and trying luck on discord (ať least for me). Scenario is going like this: Somebody contacts you with message about your account. He accidentaly reported it and steam support is not going to help. So he tell you to contact someone on discord, 100% genuine steam support staff. Later with “steam support staff” you go thru proces of verification of account (sending few screenshots). Loging off from all devices, Steam Deck included, and then he tells you to forward him confirmation code from SMS, or remove phone number from steam acc, or confirm request in steam guard (i have gone thru all of it, before he figured out that i am just wasting his time) Do not send him anything.
WTF! What a low life twat. I hope no one falls for this.
Always always take a pause before doing anything and don’t feel rushed. That’s when stupid kicks in. Also contact support via any sensible methods not suggested by the scammer that are under your control or official channels.
