Hey guys so this is my first warning thread in this section.
Sorry if this has already been posted and sorry for any grammar mistakes,I'm writing this at 4 am.
So recently there was a lot of phishing attacks on Steam members (Mostly CS:GO/TF2 players) where they want to "trade" one of yours shitty items for awesome one.
They just randomly add you and ask you if you want to trade and they are usually low steam level.
Spoiler (Click to View)
As you can see,it looks like steam URL but if you look closely you can see it has diffrent 2-3 letters from official steam site.
Usually people don't read URL's because if it looks similar it probably is steam site.
http://steamcommunity.com/
There have been 100+ steam phisting sites and here are some of popular ones.

After you click on "trade" link it will direct you to his awesome "steam profile" where he puts some rare items as Item Showcases so he can get your attention.
His account is usually high level with a lot of "reputation" from other steam "members"
Spoiler (Click to View)
And from that point you need to login to your steam profile so you could complete "trade" with him
BUT you need to download special "tool" because you are coming from new browser or something like that..
Spoiler (Click to View)
And from that point he will most likely steal your password and transfer your items to his account and it will keep sending friend requests to other users from YOUR account.
If you think your account might be compromised or stolen be sure to read these 2 links.
