No! Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 (edited) I have notice that i been getting a lot of random people message me with shit like the picture below. I don't know if it is the same person or just that a lot people are doing this. Please don't click on the link from anyone you don't know. Plus someone people who are your friends could turn out to do this to you as well. BE SAFE DON'T CLICK ON LINKS IN STEAM!!! Apt. 2B Told me the best way to deal with this is just block the kid and Go on with your life with him blocked like a ROCK!! Edited February 15, 2011 by Clifford "No!"

moo Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I usually have conversations with those people. Most of them are quite nice. One even offered me a free gift if I just clicked on his link! I thanked him and clicked on the link. Then my computer shut down and I thought the power went off, but the lights were on. So I then began to ponder, and I realized it must've been my computer itself! I took it in, but they said it had major viruses. I did not believe them because this made no sense. They asked me if I clicked on any bad links before the computer started to go out. I said that this lovely gentlemen gave me a link to a free gift asking for credit card information. They asked me why I gave him the credit card information. He told me he needed it just in case there was a shipping fee. He also told me to login to steam and my email. He gave me two links, one to steam support and the other to a yahoo alternative website. He said that both of them are faster than the originals. I logged in and then I started having problems. The computer techs told me that was the problem and that I should not trust random people on the internet. I thought it was rude of them to talk to my online friend that way, so I did not listen to their advice and bought a exact copy of my computer and threw the other one away. I figured it would save me more money and then I could get back online to meet another wonderful friend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
