That explains that weird message I got from you. You still got your account right?

royalromantixx.bsky.social•114 days ago

Yep! I got my account back and locked it down, but LORD

driveby login token stealer or something(?) only thing i can think of that can bypass 2factor stuff, especially as strong as steamguard is

That’s insane!!!!!

iirc it steals your current login session token and pretends to be the device you were logged into thus bypassing 2factor

i wasn't aware this was possible against steam specifically. you may want to reset your passwords on anything else sensitive you had your login info saved for on your device tho

I went through a whole round of resetting passwords this morning, got an Authenticator app and everything. You’re right, it wasn’t even just my steam. I’ve got no idea how something like this happened

you probably browsed past a site that yoinked your logins from your web browser. hence, drive by login token stealer.
