rogue Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 I still don't get that some of you people are dumb enough to fill in their Steam info on some website, Steam wil NEVER ask you for your login info! Even Botervloot fell for it. it was a remake of steamcommunity;-/. and not some website Quote

Even Botervloot fell for it. Euhm V, Starting up steam= login; going into community tab=possible login; going into steam forums=login;... Quote

Even Botervloot fell for it. Euhm V, Starting up steam= login; going into community tab=possible login; going into steam forums=login;...Steam forums use a different password. The only thing outside the Steam client that requires your Steam password is the community. And that one is clearly verified by VeriSign. Plus you can access it from the Steam client itself. That's not all, you even get a warning message not to give out your password. If you go to a Steam verified webpage, this doesn't show up. Unless ofcourse, you disabled it, but before you disable it you need to make sure you're capable of seeing through a hoax. The URL is obvious, the website not being verified is obvious etc. Quote

Even Botervloot fell for it. Euhm V, Starting up steam= login; going into community tab=possible login; going into steam forums=login;...Wut? I mean logging in on websites that someone sends you without saying 'hi' and adding 'OMG FUNNY OLOOLOLOLOLOL free games!1!1!!!!!!1' to it.Loging into Steam or into the (official) SteamCommunity is something else then logging in on some so-called Steam website with a weird URL (I mean 'www.steamcommunity_com_...' how can you fall for that?)

Firehawk Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 rogue is right it. anyway steam does ask for your login info.oke if you arent logged in steam then you go to the steam webpage and click on community THEN it needs your login info i have it many times either if i am logged in steam it still asked me sometimes (only if i want to look on a friends profile or group) Quote
Mayco Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 i have it many times either if i am logged in steam it still asked me sometimes (only if i want to look on a friends profile or group)In that case, it's still in your Steam browser. If you don't trust it you can simply press "Home" to go to the real community login page. Quote

I also had it that I had to login to the SC, via Steam, but that was inside the Steam program and the official community page (right click @ Steam icon > Community). Quote
Firehawk Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 anyway maybe it is stupid to fill in the login info BUT!!! a friend sended it to me (botervloot (not the real him) )and he is a mr-green admin so ofcourse i fill in and look at it. i mean you can trust a admin of a big community.with many friends in it you know....

Lemon! Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Not when he writes stuff like "OMG OMG HAHA" Because it isn't what Boter would do, mm? Quote

I can't stress it enough: Whoever it is, you MUST check the link, check if the website is verified AND check if the website offers a secure connection BEFORE submitting your info. There are no excuses. Quote
Firehawk Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 (edited) oke now we all know it is a fake login page and we know it is a hacker sostop talking about it. we get it now. Edited February 27, 2010 by Firehawk Quote

Mayco Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 You can keep saying it's "easy" to fall for tricks like this, but it isn't as long as you use your brain. Quote
Firehawk Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 OMG just SHUT UP people already know it now Quote
BlueYoshi97 Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 You can keep saying it's "easy" to fall for tricks like this, but it isn't as long as you use your brain.Yeah well maybe his brain has been eaten by evil zombies from Outer Space. Or just Fast Zombies from Ravenholm. You don't know. And they don't know either. Quote
