My brother's old email got hacked and is permanently linked to his Steam account (can't change it without contacting Valve, which he doesn't want to do) so he has to turn it off to use his Steam account on another computer. That is why he leaves it off, but I just told him to turn it on, just in-case...

Just keep trying, the servers are a bit overloaded at the moment, as I would imagine.

this is talking about the passwords to your FORUM account, not the steam account password. If they are the same for you, you should change it. otherwise just the forum one.

On second thought, better not to quibble. Everyone should have SteamGuard activated after this mess, so I hope this encourages members to actually set that up. A password reset can't hurt.

Can't login to the UserCP. So I've reset my password and left as the email generated one.. Safe enough ^^''

Also, those who use the same password for everything.. Best of luck.. This is most likely my last ever SG message. Forever... Good Bye all... ^^/

By the way, I don't know if everything is going crazy or what, but there are 3 daily deals announcements on the "Steam headlines" section for today, and the Weekend Deal should have been here for almost 6 hours. :s

Omg no wonder my online banking got blocked. I rang up my bank and i got told someone tried hacking into my account and what they did is gave me a new id and password. It was kinda weird for me because i always have firewall and antivirus on. This happend a few days ago to me. I didn't know it was because of steam. Omg.

Also, in my email i kept getting attempts of a password change for my steam account and i was like wtf. Thank god my passwords are different. But tomorrow im going to renew my debit card just incase. And change my passwords. This is so serious. I have my life savings in that account.

and where exactly does one get access to your bank account from having access to your steam forums account?

God knows. I just want to be on the safe side and change everything. If they can hack into my account, they can hack into anything and steal information.

If he used the same password and email I guess?

Probably, but my email, steam account, online banking and paypal all have different passwords. I just don't know how the hacker got to my online banking though. Thats got nothing to do with steam. I hope my money hasn't disappeared from my bank though.

Aw well, gotta wait till tomorrow to check.

Your bank "hack" attempt is definitely not related to Steam's compromise. Why? http://i.imgur.com/IMeWI.png

I've had 3 emails in the last hour about someone trying to log into my Steam account, SteamGuard protected it. I strongly recommend everyone change their passwords though, they've obviously got some.

For a moment there I was kinda worried.

I spent about 5 minutes trying to login to my steam forum account so I could change the password.

Aaaaand, then I asked it to send my account info to my email. Evidently I never actually signed up to the Steam forums. XD

(Either that, or I used one of my other emails... brb checking other email addresses >_>)

They got "hashed and salted passwords". In other words, they didn't get anything. Nothing to fear.
