Steam account hacker.

Postby Jangalomph on Tue Nov 04, 2008 11:40 pm

I got some guys steam, trying to hack an account using this site
http://www.activate-steam.co.cc/

"dont be retarded and enter your info in that"
I was wondering if some one could flag that site, and help ban the guy.
http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197979648311
That is his profile. :evil:

What im trying to do is, i fell for it about a year ago, and stopping this one guy can save alot of people.
But this guy just sent me this about 10 minutes ago.

I just got one of these, steamsecurity.co or something. It had Identical template and the url even looked fine, and I entered my info :(

Working on damage control right now, they got my steam account and my email.

Well, that domain is being examined (Y)

But you should send this stuff to Valve anti-hack whatever

It's in Steam somewhere

its already been reported to firefox for web forgery.. so if anyone uses firefox they get a nice big red message saying this site steals your info, only idiots would ignore the warning and enter there information after that.

also the site is now gone

whut? 'steamsecurity.co or something' and you say the URL looked fine?

some basic tips

urls
urls of official organisations are usually .com. Avoid ALL SITES WITH .ru (communistic crap), .co (columbia, how could you even remotely think this was legit?). Basically, avoid all top-level domains outside USA, EU, apart from perhaps canada, australia, japan.
No offical site uses GET's to get you to a login box, so NO legit url contains @nY $tr@ng& characters in the url itself (apart from, eg, session id's). In other words: learn what an url is and use your knowledge

URLs
top level domains

whois
You can lookup who owns a site, cool huh? If you even plan to enter your credentials on a site, whois the site
whois lookup
try it for eg steampowered.com, and you know what to expect.

Let your pc think
Use phising filters; firefox has one, some firewalls and virusscanners have one as well

Think for yourself
What does the site offer? is this possible/normal (3 cars for free if you sign in with your steam account!!!)? do you need it (one car is enough)? is it a popular site (the google nooes)? Hows the HTML (the amount of errors on a site can give you a hint, though dont rely on this)? broken images, links, are never found on official sites.
In short: dont post your credentials on every silly site that offers you gold. it most often does not.
When you are up to your neck in shit, keep your head up high

Anything that looks too good to be true generally is. Also just never enter your account details ever easier that way.

telling me I'm an idiot and pointing out the obvious is helping a lot

The site popped up and asked me to reconnect to steam. It had steam's template. I didn't see .co until after I went to my history, which is the only thing that would have tipped it off. It wasn't offering anything, it just said I needed to log in again. This has happened before because my shit internet will go out every so often. I have firefox, I saw no warnings. I got it early, or it's because I haven't upgraded to firefox 3.

All that stuff is great help for someone who doesn't know anything, but advice on getting my account back would be just a tad bit more helpful at this point.

Yes, if it's been seen on 4chan then 4chan obviously invented it.
