Wow... Thank god I don't use Steam (well, my account has no details of any kind attached).

That's a massive security breach...

It has an email, which is fully visible.
It'll be interesting to see how Valve resolves & responds to this.
I heard it's an DDoS or a full hacking op.
Hope it's not true and thankfuly I did not put in any private info nor my CC info on my account.

True, but I can't really see much they can do with that other than try to log into other accounts.

Plus if what bela says above is true then my account is unlikely to show up, I haven't logged into it in months.

Goddmnt. This is bad. I got a glimpse of my account and now theres like 39 items in cart and then pops up error 302
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why you do not associate address, credit card information or cell phone number with a Steam account or transfer funds to your Steam wallet...

Well damn that sucks. Don't think I have much on my Steam account other than an old email. No CC or store credit I believe. But shit, this is serious and people say Steam is more secure than GOG....

Yeah, thankfully I don't have CC info or store credit on mine either.
Have they even like taken Steam offline? You would think that would be the first priority when personal info is being taken and/or seen by random people.
