    I got scammed.

    this here is Fossil.

    i would like to say that fransan sent me a message in steam saying something about a gifted game so i clicked on it and entered steam info then my account got hijacked.


    luckily i own a computer business and well have a lot of pc tech that know their way around a pc and know how to track ppl down.

    needless to say. i will find out who did this and they will be prosecuted. NO JOKE!!!!


    anywho just thought you guys might wanna know!!!


    btw im offering a $50 reward to whoever gets me the info first. my team or someone else.

    Fransan's account got hijacked a while ago. This is probably not his fault.

    Never enter your info anywhere but the official Steam website. Always follow the rule that if it is too good to be true....

    yep it says right in the subscriber agreement, they will never ask for your account name and password.

    You aren't the first either. There were a number of users affected in the past 2 months.

    Luckily I'm a paranoid schitzophrenic and I outnumber myself two to one. I don't tell anyone anything. Which explains my plans in CSS.
