Been a while but here is a new one

8 March, 2016 - [SA] ///[T]rixity | 2 Comments

Well these are probably reported for sending phishing links but here you go:

Epic Gamer: i was instructed to tell you this if people by name (NisseFar, Nivek, nesse, cake-senpai, aids-with-care, or pizza-ishuman) want to add you to their list, don't accept them. It is a virus.Tell it to everyone on your list because if one person on your list adds him or her, you get it too. It is a hard drive killer and a very horrible virus. Please pass it on to everyone on your list. We need to find out who it is and please pass this to your friend

Cheers,
Trixity

Fake Steam Community links

Again, some people are trying to gain your password by getting you to visit the Steam Community website. However, this time it is to do with trading - a feature which despite my own thoughts on it, is very appealing to some.

Take a look at this screenshot I got of a guy who added me to Steam and told me to visit this site:

A couple things to note:

This website doesn't use SSL/TLS encryption, (https) which the official Steam Community website does.
'Steamummunity' (?) - easy to miss, harder to get your account back. Pay attention to what you're clicking on.
Don't even click on it, you are allowing the potential for denial of service attack to your computer by connecting to the website and giving away your IP address as freely as clinics give away condoms.

That is all for now folks!
Cheers,
-Lewis :')
