Lethals Loaded 1224 Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Quick Account Protection PostAfter being in many communities with many games I have learned a lot about people trying to get information from you, today I have stumbled upon one on Olympus teamspeak. Whatever happens, do not try to retype the URL in image provided below as it will most likely end up badly for you.A user from Southern-Arabia (Most likely a proxy from there, 90% of times those scammers are from there) by name of aposzx has sent me a link with a believable look. It looks exactly like a Steam one, but when you hover over the link as in in picture provided it shows it's real face. DO NOT ever click these links or end up like cLoak and loose a lot of money through items on your steam.Here is an example of the phishing link, and how it looks:Simple BB code was used to transform a believable looking steam link to a 'logtocontinue' website link. Don't be a fool and click those. 4 1 Quote Link to comment

Lethals Loaded 1224 Posted August 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 I suggest things such as google authenticator, steam guard etc. - those little measures will help out sooner or later. Perhaps never, but you could end up like cLoak - right Quote Link to comment

Wonderin what's gonna happen... :-( You have to change every PW and run a virus scan as the link will keylog you and download a keylogger. Quote Link to comment

sleazy turd racoon 383 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 i still dont know what the link does what game is it ment for arma or csgo xd Quote Link to comment
Jorbis 327 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 i still dont know what the link does what game is it ment for arma or csgo xdClicking the link could give you a key logger, which would mean anything you type on your computer could be compromised. Seeing as how it's a steam community link, it's targeting your steam account and most likely csgo. Quote Link to comment
