Im at work atm and i have just got aload of emails from steam saying my username, a foggorent password code and another log in from a different computer. WTF do i do i cant do anything while i am at work and no1 knows my steam or anything like that. Im Not having much luck this week first my keyboard is broken then my car and now i may be getting hacked :-|
 
Have you checked the emails are actually from Steam? and not some shady 3rd source?

Is your profile locked down? or is it set to public?
 
i have managed to open a ticket while i am at work, just some sites it wont let me on. they are from steam with the codes and eveything needed to be able to reset them all. i cant even log into my account as it says incorrect password or user name
 
So someone will know you email address password as well, as you cannot access your account without the code which is sent to your email!
 
Well I think the best thing you could probably do right now would be to change your email password for something else. That should stop any potential hacker from getting the codes needed to effect account changes.
 
Please tell me your going to steam.com to logon and not the links in the emails??? :eek:

if your using the links in the emails you could have already effectively given away your steam account!!
 
well i have changed my email passoword now and tht didnt even cross my mind, i have tryed their homepage and it wont let me. i have made a steam support account and told them what is happening.

steam.com is nothing to do with Steam, so I hope he isn't going there!
 
Seems to be a big spree of hacking going on at the moment (using proxies in Taiwan) I've had numerous attempts to access several services registered to one of my email addresses (not phishing emails) and they actually broke the password on one site by bruteforce - fortunatly the site suspended the account as it wasn't a login from a previously known device.
