If you get a message from this user or anything relativly close to it, Do not trust it. Steam will never give out free links to games and if they do, it will be in their news.

This scammer was a friend of mine named [LDT] TwoMike, His account got hacked due to this site so beware of it.

Note : I made this thread to warn you guys, I did not make this to promote him or to see other people fail. You have been warned.

So is this a conversation that happened on Steam, or in a Blocktopia Server?

 

[Shinyshark]

On steam, I am just warning you guys about it.
Trap Wolf

 

[BurnyBurn]

Because we're all that gullible.

 

[hywel45]

Thanks for the warning

 

[Blockinator]

Thanks for the heads-up

 

[Numberplay]

I rarely start a conversation on the net. Everyone i chat with are from Blocktopia

 

[Defiant_Blob]

Because we're all that gullible.

You'd be surprised.

 

[boredchicka]

You'd be surprised.

Was going to say this.

Also, that for the heads up Shiny. That was incredibly amusing. :D

 

[ZombiePineapple]

Wow people are so gulliable these days

 

[Duffie]

You know, being an "Internet Veteran", from the old days of way back...

I, myself, wonder why people still try to scam.

If they're going to try and scam us, why don't they do it professionally and "not-so-obvious"ly?

 

[BurnyBurn]

Because out of every 100 internet users, there's one person that's stupid enough to fall for it.

I also come from the time of dial-up, but scammers do come a long way. From emails and whatnot. With today's knowledge, people can just simply hack (and slash) into a user's account but people still fall with the same old trick: "Give us your account and password for a prize". In the end, there's a sucker born every minute, just make sure your not one of them.

lack of buttplugs in this thread

 

[Swate]

Oh. I just realised that websitehere.fail isn't the name of the website XD
In all seriousness though, thanks for the heads-up.

 

[Amorix]

Sure. Like any legit source is going to want my password for anything besides their own site.

 

[Mmarz11]

Scammers, they only need people dumber than them in order to succeed.

 

[Shinyshark]

Why does everyone keep saying that you have to be extremely dumb to get hacked?
The site looked exactly like the steam site, In-fact I nearly fell for it.

The account that messaged me comes from a diffrent community I also play on, He's a member there and even had influence on the server. He was a smart clever guy and got his account hacked which is now being used for this, That happend half a year ago and there's been 57 reports of people that had this happen to them from that single user.

Yes, Noone fell for it because they knew it was TwoMike (The hacked account) and knew he would never do that, Plus that this guy had the worst english ever.

This is how the site looked, there's no indications to what the site is named in the screenshot and the only indication that could lead to this being a scam was the adress.

Spoiler: The scamming web-site

 

[Amorix]

The part about it looking exactly like a steam site I did not know. Sorry.

Mind if I have the actual address if you still have it please?

 

[Shinyshark]

Mind if I have the actual address if you still have it please?

I don't see why you'd want it and posting it here is definitly illegal.
Although if you are really interested send me a PM and ask for permission from higher staff first.

*Le me doesn't have steam*.....

This site could also've taken the password to your E-mail adress and recover all 'lost passwords'.

I don't know how it could do it, I didn't even enter the site, nor I do have steam, never installed steam. =D
