Hello everyone, I know it's Christmas, and it's supposed to be a great day... but this is major news...
Steam's Server's that store cache have been letting people without logging in, access accounts just by viewing the steam community, steam store page, and account settings.
This has been reported on many other websites, it wasn't a hack, but was a possible DDoS attack that caused the server's to do such a thing(Not an official answer)
It's a tad bit sad that valve hasn't released a statement yet on it, but personally I have experienced seeing a Russian page, and items in my cart that weren't mine, so I came here to let you guys know about it.
I have a video on my YouTube channel, see my signature for a link to it, and I explain more in depth about it(Not a professional, just giving you guys a summary of what has happened).
Best Of Luck to those that lost money.
~Zac's Custom[DOUBLEPOST=1451089715][/DOUBLEPOST]Apparently the issue is somewhat resolved when steam took down the store for 2-3 hours, but to be sure, I'd recommend only using prepaid cards on steam from now on... Buy them on amazon, or any store.. just don't trust steam with your credit cards or your Paypal.
Best Of Luck!
