Exclamation WARNING: Hack Attack

There is a hacker that has been sending people links to his "videos", the links end in ".exe", that is a program that we believe will take your saved login info, and send the information to the "hacker".

Who ever this is has already taken over "#Teamshovel | JoeDirt"'s account, and "#Teamshovel | Universal Soildier"'s.

If you recieve a message from anyone, that asks you to see their video, with a link that ends with the ".exe" extension, don't click it, and don't trust that person.

The second I saw exe in the link I knew it was bad. Video files aren't .exe and they aren't 74 KB.

Thanks for the warning, I'll make sure to keep away from those .exe files.

Glad to hear they managed to get their accounts back.

I hope to god whoever took their accounts didnt use any aimbot type programs otherwise it will be a short lived victory as even tho the account was in the hands of an unknown asshole steam will still vac ban their accounts
