This is random.

[henk]

this is funnyXD
not the fact that someone is giving himself out to be
a steam admin, but youre reactionxD

[EvIlBlAcKsOnIc]

ciorps added me that someone has done that with him and he lost his account lol
so people watch out for this

it can maybe also be ciorps because we explained him how he must do it

[fruitbowl 1]

Haha steam admin with an english like that, I mean that's not even a good try of f*cking with you.

[NickCPC]

If you fall for this, you absolutely deserve to lose your account IMO.

[ewil apple]

I did hear from a friend of mine who knows ciorps (wirus) that he did in fact get banned by talking to a "steam admin".
Well, I did watch a steam ID page for that player who was talking to me and he was a member of the clear community (something wirus came up with), so maybe he got scammed by his own clan member. How nice!
What new and interesting things people come up with every day!

[chipmunk]

a steam admin would never say who the **** you are...
That are some kids that are trying to get some people their accounts...

[re1ease]

Yup. My friend is doing like that. He have scammed around 30 steam accounts. The thing is, he got ALL steam games by free and then he sells the accs with the games on.

He may be clever, but he's still a douchebag.

[ewil apple]

Well, it's hard to scam someone who is older, they have a thing called common sence. I guess your friend scams young unsuspicious minds, Chris.

[henk]

XD
yeah you're right ewil,,, i would never give my
account password to some guy who say's
that he's a steam admin, however, how would you
know when someone is and somewone isn't?

greetz

[ewil apple]

I don't think Steam sends admins into someone's friends list =)!

[henk]

no there's a point....
but i mean how do they contact you?
(only i can't think of a reason why they would
need your password....)

There is no such thing as a Steam admin. Those that do have control over the Steam network act anonymously, disabling your account without having spoken to you. And even if they would contact you, it would be over e-mail and in a formal way, seldom with any names or specific employees involved.
I can see how people fall for these types of scams, however.
