We are sorry for the inconvenience in Steam services.
Phantom squad team hackers are attacking our servers with type (DDOS).
We are trying to reverse this unforeseen..

I assume you realize that Steam chat message or forum post is not a trustworthy source?
Besides, I highly doubt that Steam Support is working today. It's Christmas.
And even with automatic replies it takes a few days to get a response.

No it didn't. The servers just fucked up due to so many users logging in. Back from work.

It actually got DDoSed

1. DDoS is not a "hack".
2. There is no evidebce that Steam servers were DDoSed. If there is, please link.

It wasn't from a site. a Friend gave it to Me.

In other words, it holds absolutely no value.

Phanton squad got Their twitter suspended.

Yes, because they were whoring for retweets and attention.
Not because they did anything to the Steam servers.

Give us the source and we might believe it.

A pile of text is not a source. It can be typed by anyone.

There have been worse downtimes on Steam before anyway.

it's been 4 hours straight.

And? 4 hours is not the longest in the history of Steam downtimes.
Worst one happened in 2011 if I remember right.

There is no one at this time to maintain the servers, simple as that. It's not DDoS.

Huh, no wonder it's F2P.

I changed the cable's plug and 10 Mbps speed went to over 200 Mbps immediately. Worth trying if you have multiple plugs in your household.

All wifi

Not what I meant, the router/modem is plugged to somewhere, where the data goes in/out.
Maybe if you change that plug where the router's wire goes to another. Usually households have multiple plugs to put router's wire to.

Seriously, the plug may be fucked. Changing the spot fixed for me.
