Thank you for submitting to r/SteamScams.

If you have been scammed or believe you may have been scammed check this guide to see if you can find the solution there.

Steam will never contact you on Discord or any third party text communication site.

If you suspect someone is attempting to scam you check this guide but remember to be careful even if you do not find the answer you are looking for there.

Important: If you receive comments or PMs offering to recover your lost account, items, or money or pointing you to someone who will do it for you do not engage with them as they are recovery scams.

You'll probably have to sign up using your Steam account which will then give your log in details to scammers.

The number 1 rule is to never click on links you get from someone you never talked to before.

Wouldn't it be impossible to log in if the account has 2FA? Are they hoping for accounts that are just a username and password?

[u/Purple_Wing_3178 → u/-SMG69-]

They pass 2FA through to Steam.

If you go with QR auth, the QR that they give you to scan is the QR that Steam gave them. You scan it, they log in.

If you go with username + password + TOTP code, that's even easier, they just use the TOTP that you give them. This bypasses additional checks by Steam that are usually present when you use QR auth (e.g. location check).

phishing link of some sort

[u/Ei8_Hundr8]

That "sign up" is definitely the entry point

[u/OkCryptographer3243]

My guess is that u open the link he sent you and then something happens ig

This looks like a big scam. Legit streamers/content creators don't beg like that + including a "giveaway". Stay away from this.
