Phishing site`s

Hi Guys,
Just to let MG Members/admins alike.
I had a so called friend on my friend`s list, who I don`t know personally, sent me in text chat while online....he sent this message!!!

DO NOT CLICK ANY LINK THIS GUY SENDS YOU!!!!

I contacted steam support and they reported back to me, with this:-

I did not click the link that was sent to me, but wanted to let my fellow members know about this guy.

If this person is on your friends list, I would advise to BLOCK immediately!!!!

Thanks, but what I dont get is; when you clicked on it, you're Steam browser opened and it starting sending random shizzle to random sites? That's messed.

 

Thanks for letting me know. I blocked him from my list. I remember playing with him almost half a year ago on L4D2, but never saw him again. Yeah, that's definitely a phishing site. I went in and bypassed Chrome's attempts to stop me from visiting and entered a username and password (words have been censored on the forum ):

Username: F***_You_Bit**_AndGoSuckSome
Password: ****You********************and*****

And the thing took it and said "Thank you for Logging in, you will get an email soon with your free games" xD

Basically all it does it log whatever you enter, as I suspected. It won't mess with your steam, because programatically it can't through a web page, although it can open steam-default links (which doesn't do much anyways). So I went in and spammed the log lol. I might write a fun program which keeps submitting thousands of spam member infos to his site

 

OMG!!! Nice LOL!!!

 

I got banned from his site xD

 

LOL!!! What did u do????

 

Well, I wrote a simple program with C# .NET that makes use of the web browser control. You enter a fake username and password and hit Go. The program will create another thread and keep on filling the form with the username/pass you entered and continuously submit it thousands of times. It spams his log file Want it?

 

Which version of IE are you running?

 

Thanks for the headup PP

lool nice

 

This happens to me often... Anything i can do to report his ass?
