Default Steam “Hacked” Update

Steam “Hacked” Update

Shacknews has an update to the story about Valve “getting hacked” almost two weeks ago. I know people are trying to make this sound like it just happened but, other than this update from Shacknews, this is weeks old and your account info is safe.

According to The Steam Review, Steam itself was not accessed, but rather a Valve file server. Furthermore, the site explains that only the credit cards of Cyber Cafe subscribers were compromised. "The numbers in danger are all held by cybercafe owners, who have recurring subscriptions to their Steam games and have probably all long been informed," the posting reads. "Consumer data are only stored in enough detail to fight mass fraud, not make purchases, and weren't compromised anyway."
