HELP!

Hi,

I think my steam account may have been hacked.

I received a weird email from steam which I have included below.

Anyone know what it means? I'm seriously worried as I can't sign in on the app and I don't have access to a computer for a day or so.

Email:

Dear Steam User,

This is an automated message generated by Steam account administration. It is being sent in response to a query made by a Steam user to discover all account names associated with this CD-key.

Steam account name: meme

If you requested this query, please use the above account name to log in to Steam. If you cannot remember your password, click on the “Retrieve lost account” button on the Steam login screen.

If you did not request this query, please ignore this message – users cannot gain access to your account via the Find Account By CD Key process without access to your email account.

A better place to ask this may be /r/steam

Also I am not too sure what this means

Good luck

You're not hacked, if you didn't request the query (which I don't think you did than do just as the email said:

Yes they would and yes they do! 

It is sent when someone tries to use a cd-key that has already been activated on another account. If you have been taking part in a key giveaway or have traded for a key, etc. It's someone else trying to enter the key into their Steam client. 

 

 

It is indeed NOT a scam. As KARR above me said, it is an automated message that's sent out when someone clicks the "Recover Account" button after trying to enter a used CD-key.

So, just ignore it.
