steam - reporting phishers ?

Post by spm97 » Thu Dec 25, 2008 7:07 pm

Can anyone find anyplace in steam to report someone for account phishing ? I had someone try it a few minutes ago...and after I got done laughing at the person for being unable to spell....well....

I figure I should report it. But where ??

The Moderator here explained it quite well.

But also be aware of the case that they most likely used an already hacked hijacked phished account to contact you.
