Jipp, your account is most likely compromised and your only friend on your list, is the guy who is trying to scam you.

He deleted everyone in my friends list. He deleted my profile pic and changed my username into that weird number so what do I do?

You gave your crenditials most likely away including the live code of the app. If you have done all stepps, you should be fine.

You should _never_ use your steam account outside of steam.

So if someone offers you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, games, hats etc. with a link that asks for your steam login, _do_ not_do_it_!

I never used my credentials outside of steam as far as I know but hopefully I fixed the problem without losing any items or money
