  • Earlier last night, two of my friends on steam spammed something that looked awfully retarded at me, but it was lengthy, wordy, and smelled like scam. Then a third, and a fourth, and then a fifth did, and I began to WTF. Everyone I tried to talk to after they spammed immediatley logged off, and only after my sixth retarded friend clicked the link (this one being on ventrilo) did he inform me that lo and behold, someone managed to crack steam's chat overlay. It wiped his password, recovery info and then showed him to the exit screen of steam. Now he has to contact steam support now to get it all back.

    I was more interested by the fact that the infection is spreading so quickly, if it isn't stopped by Valve, i'm curious to see what percentage of users will be thrown out of their accounts.
