So did anyone actually get anything purchased on their account?
This is the fuck-up that will force Valve to change the many different negative elements of their company that have been tolerated so far.

Well I've got Steam Guard, so I should be fine right?
Either way, Steam is losing my business for a while over this. I'm more than happy to buy from elsewhere.
Nah, Greenlight will still be full of scammers, and the marketplace still will be full of bots.

Gabe will give a long written reply.
People will say that he was humble and took his lumps and they still trust Valve.
That's about it.

hahahahaha
People have "invested" lots of lots of money into a small group of corporations. When they get completely burned after spending years defending their use of money they will either
1) be really, really fucking pissed
2) go into complete denial and make sure everyone knows they are right

I thought that no purchases could be done.

(shout-outs to the nice random people on Steam contacting me to chat because they were in my account and looking at my stuff--all seemed like standup, trustworthy guys)
This being on Christmas sure makes me wonder if this was an intentional hack

This is not the time to post random shit you find somewhere without proper attribution from trustworthy sources.
Those database dumps aren't public to normal people. You could literally go into anything Steam related and get a new person's account. So you are under the whims of literally anyone who could touch the steam stuff.
I'm not sure what's worse, but it's clearly on the same level.
So much for people saying you couldn't buy or do anything on other peoples accounts right? Nothing to worry about right?
That was probably done 60 mins ago before valve found out.I thought that no purchases could be done.

What we know so far
- Most likely an error in the way Steam caches pages.
- People are able to access random Steam profiles and see compromising information, account names, emails, last 2 digits of credit card, paypal email address, purchases, etc.
- No changes can be made to the effected account, no purchases can be made. Any evidence to the contrary is, as of yet, unsubstantiated.
- It's been advised to not access Steam URLs, including the client, until we have more information.
- Do not post account names you see, huge security risk.
- Do not log into Steam to unlink your Paypal. If you feel the need, can be done from the actual Paypal website.
- Reminder: Steamdb is not affiliated with Valve in any way.
I'll update this post with more information going forward.
Holy shit.
On another note, wouldn't it take ages to scour the store for even that much money's worth of purchases? Damn.
I quite literally posted a list of the details that have been exposed through this link, that were not exposed through PSN, and said as such. Not quite sure what you're getting at here, but whatever.
