Title: Hacked My Steam Account - Lost $1000 of Virtual Items

"Hey guys, had a crazy morning. Just got back to my Steam account and all my TF2 keys and in-game items have been cleared out. Thinking I had them backed up, but guess not... Anyone else ever had their Steam account compromised?"

Dude, sorry to hear that. Did you at least report the incident to Steam and try to get your items restored? You might also wanna change your password and enable 2FA ASAP.

"Dude, sorry to hear that. You should've enabled that 2FA ASAP. Now you're probably going to have to file a support ticket and hope Steam's customer service is on it."

Yikes, that's a bummer! Make sure you report the incident to Steam support ASAP and change your password, as well as enable 2FA if you haven't already. Hope you got some good screenshots of your stuff, at least you can try to get it reimbursed.

"Dude, that's a total bummer. Double-check your Steam trade history and report any suspicious accounts ASAP. Also, make sure you've enabled two-factor authentication to prevent this from happening in the future."

"Lol, sorry to hear that dude! Don't know how they got in, but make sure to change your Steam password ASAP and enable 2FA ASAP too."

"Dude, sorry to hear that - that's gotta be frustrating. Make sure you report it to Steam and change all your passwords ASAP. Did you use any 2FA or was the account compromised via email/hacking?"

 

[ingvar_m]

"Dude, that's brutal. Have you tried reaching out to Steam support? They might be able to help you recover some of your items, worth a shot at least."

 

[lichnosty]

Dude, that's harsh. Did you do a password reset or change your Steam account email? Also, have you tried contacting Steam's support about getting your items restored?"
