This isnt 4chan. Wait for valve, they have helped with every issue I have ever had including not being able to log in twice and having my account stolen once. What ever happens with credit cards or games or what not can be reversed. What your asking is illegal.

Yeah Red_Machine has been confirmed for 12. Someone did something illegal to you? COMMIT A FELONY BACK! YEAHH! :roll:

Did you change your passwords for streamworks after there where hacked last 4 weeks back.?
interesting thing here is when stream was Hacked was the date of peoples pass words and,
Credit cards leaked on the net.??

It has happened to me twice and Steam has been rather fast about it. Once you provide them with all the correct information they need they will get your account back in no time.

While it is difficult to watch the bastard play your games sadly you will have to endure that.
Your guy seems much meaner than the one I had. The one I had just ignored all my friends, he didn't actually delete them.

Also I logged into my Banned Steam Account and started bitching the shit out of him and told him how I was sooo going to get my account back but that probably wasn't wise lol.

What I learned and suggest you do.

Never have your PC as the DMZ always have your firewall up router wise and software wise.

Use GMAIL!!!!! USE IT's PHONE VERIFICATION!!!

That way they need your phone to even change the password!!!

Goodluck.


Use GMAIL!!!!! USE IT's PHONE VERIFICATION!!!

+1
Gmail: Email from Google all so has ip Trace when i used it last to years back it use,t
To have setting on Gmail that told you the ( I.P. address ) of the computers that logged in to the Gmail account With that type of e.mail you code Find out Who has used the g.mail.
Account that way you code back track On the hackers ip address if there where to use your G.mail account ;)

STILL nothing from Valve, and it's been two days now. I've half a mind to email Gabe himself and complain.

It will take you a longer time to get a response from him.
