I'm new. But that's not the point, the point is I need help.
You see, I was hanging out on Steam, when a Phisher sent me a link, I clicked it and put in my info, but then quickly went back to my Steam Account and change my password. Twice. I've reported them, but I don't know what else to do. Can someone help me?

As long as you haven't lost access to your account you should be ok. I'll tell you what I told my mom, "DON'T CLICK ANY LINKS!!!".

What information did you send, your password or everything, including your email?

If just your password, you're safe. If the rest of your information... you're probably fucked.

Never give your password to anyone. Does this important statement at the top of every chat not mean anything anymore!?

IF you still have your account control, you should be good. Don't change your password back, and if you do lose your account control then send in a support ticket to Valve. They'll e-mail you back a password-reset request or something along those lines, and it can be sorted out. Valve are really good about not being assholes for that kind of thing.

Yeah, they keep trying to do that to me.

Just ignore them, and don't click on random links on the internet, unless they're sent by friends. And even they you have to be careful since the link is most likely to goatse.

Lesson learned the hard way. They put those never give information signs up for a reason. Maybe you can email their tech people who, I'm sure, will do what they can to help... they might laugh though...

Oh, and when they said don't give your password to ANYONE they were serious

Random but you Icon dances good to any music.

OT: keep to yourself for now on. Trust me on WoW this has happen. you will get your account back hopefully, but send (idk I have never used steam) but contact some sort of official and send them the name via email, they will shut down the Phser.

Yeah, It was a trick. Steam_com_.com or something along those lines. I thought that it was legit.

What is there username?
Their username is "Be Polite." And Thanks for the help Everyone.
I cannot find any "Be Polite"(Or "Be Polite.") on friends. Are you sure that's his name? I would so much like to fuck with this sorry phising fool.

OT: As many people have already mentioned - you appear to be in the clear, so that means everything is fine and dandy. In the future you shouldn't give out information so lightly :)
