Steamguard question

Pighardia · 24 Oct 2016 at 00:20

Hi all. I'm at work at the moment doing a night shift, and my phone has just gone off, and it is the steam app. It is sending me authentication codes like you get when you log in form a new device. Is someone trying to hack in to my account?... Will I be alright to just change my password in the morning when I get home do you think? It ha been sending the codes for about 15 minutes now.

I'm having trouble signing in to the steam support atm.

Cheers.

Someone is trying to sign into your account on a new device. AFAIK, unless they have eyes on your steamguard there is no way to get into it

As above

As far as I am awear they will be unable access your account on another device. However I would make sure if you have any other accounts that use the same password as your steam sign in to change them. I would also change your Email password in case that has been compromised.

Good luck.

At least we see it working. If you think how much we've all spent, it would be a huge loss.
