    That and do it quick, if the person who hijacked the account gets it VAC banned then it cannot be removed...

    My experiences with steam have always been very slow I'm afraid. Hopefully you'll get luckier than me

    When it happened to my Uncle, i think they reset the password and then emailed him the pass
    i think his was a 3 day turn around (but it was over a weekend )

    Re: Steam accont hacked

    I had my steam account hacked ages ago, i had to get a new one in the end. After numerous methods of contact with steam support in the end i had to lose all my games, and my 4 digit steam ID .

    I hope they sort it for you mate as its not nice when something like that happens

    I was gutted when it happened to me.

    Re: Steam accont hacked

    if i get the fool that hijacked my account, will steam ban him? one of my clan members recieved the same message but ignored it. i think he knows who it was though and he will check it out later on.
