Steam Hack More Severe Than Thought: Change Your Password NOW

I don't quite understand one thing...

They say Steam accounts weren't compromised as far as they're aware of, but how did they get game purchases and CC info? That information is tied in with steam accounts, not forum accounts.

I'm confused! :/

I asked basically the same thing and apparently they might have gone as far as the Steam info, but it was protected so even if they got some there is still the security measure that probably won't be broken anyways

Yes, it sounds like it was properly encrypted and the criminals don't have the keys to decrypt it, which would keep us safe (hopefully).
 
Their forums are down again. I told them to upgrade but they removed my topic....
