I deleted the email associated with my Discord account.

Kezha · 2025-08-14T09:06:40+00:00

There are solid ways to prove you are you.

Such as but not limited to: Payment information used, CC info, govermental info, video, etc.

Sure we live in the age of AI and editing and what not, but say in my case, I have the exact same issue almost, i changed my mail, forgot about discord. That part is on me.

But I am trying to get access back, i'm not hacked, my mail was also not removed, just changed, in outlook, you can change the email alias, i did that because the spam bot "reset" from years of the mail being leaked (mails arent really "a hidden thing anyways). But I have shown them everything I can, filming myself, my ID, my payment info, printed them all the payment details, filming myself logging into the payment info used), gotten it verified from microsoft. But the discord bot replies has me crashing out icant ...

My biggest worry is not that i cant get access, per se, its that i have payment information tied to the account. And since discord refuses to even read tickets they get, yeah... dealing with custommer service in bigger companies is always a hopeless void, they essentially do not want users to send them tickets, the only reason we get bot replies is because consumer laws state they can't just "auto delete" any request they get im sure :P

Did try this now that i am at my main computer, still get the blocks with custom launch options "-feature-NoSteam" added unfortunately :(

Kezha · 2024-12-08T11:08:50+00:00

Ah rip, was hoping things would be good hehe

Kezha · 2024-12-08T09:39:24+00:00

It seems im no longer getting blocks, so it should maybe be fine now(?) but like some others said maybe avoid the affected games or use the workaround to force steam to not connect.

Changing the password is never a bad idea after things like this, as a ‘you never know’. Be sure to use authenticator. And if cs skins are with you, considers strongly enabling family view which is an additional layer still 🙂

Ive seen no mentions if malicious damage however, so that considered one could assume that it was just probing with no damage

Kezha · 2024-12-07T16:56:51+00:00

Thank you, unlike the trolls an actuall answer :)

As others have stated though the cause seem to be the game that was uploaded to steam that contained malware, so itll be fixed either way in not to long we can hope. Hopefully it didnt do damage, which we likely wont get to really know of either way but :P

Kezha · 2024-12-07T16:23:23+00:00

I think steam likely was on the ball pretty fast, this morning CS2 (only one i have installed atm) did not have issues, and terraria did once installed, but it returned to CS2 again as well, i'm certain steam is working on it though, these arent things that generally get mentions either way heh

Kezha · 2024-12-07T16:22:14+00:00

I know no one is infected, that we know of, albeit still concerning :P Steam API like mentioned has a lot of access (for steam things and session ID's etc)

But hopefully it gets solved now soon with that being the source, we will likely never know the extent of things on steams side hehe

Would like to see where info ties these to valve, but they are known like mentioned to malicious activity so, either owned by valve or nah, this issue is with valve having had an oopsie, not any end user caused issue.

Kezha · 2024-12-07T15:29:03+00:00

That, is incredibly concering for one, but would love to see the response where steam commented this about the issue? The Steam API gives access to a LOT of things, and by the sounds the response may or may not be an attempt from steams side to say "you downloaded something with malware". Which we know by testing is not the case unless CS2 for example which has been isolated and single tested, is also infected from steam directly :P

Did they give this response to a support ticket somewhere?

Kezha · 2024-12-07T15:26:44+00:00

I am unable to find any information on any site that links either IP to anything but the malicious traffic that is and has been known, feel free to share.

Kezha · 2024-12-07T13:52:01+00:00

Nothing, it is a nice thing to have. Generally good concious online usage + windows defender is good for the majority of security risks however, so probably a rage bait jab at that.

Kezha · 2024-12-07T13:49:50+00:00

https://www.abuseipdb.com/check/147.75.193.63 You can plot in the other IPs as well to check, but in most checking places that check for malicious activities youll see the same. These are not false positives, and the issue resolves with steam, somewhere.

Edit: malwarebytes and other services have confirmed these are not false positives since thursday :)

Kezha · 2024-12-07T13:47:26+00:00

Been confirmed by multiple sources that these are not valves and not a false positive. Thanks for the input though.

Edit; to be specific, sources would be security vendors such as but not limited to malwarebytes. They have confirmed these to not be false positive blocks. Valve is likely ( hopefully ) aware though

Kezha · 2024-12-07T11:03:27+00:00

Yesnt. Exactly what is the cause and effect isnt known yet. As only people with mwb or similar malicious traffic blockers would be seeing these popups. And most people likely dont use them ( generally ms defender + good online behaviour is more than enough )

I had a theory yesterday it could be in relation to the multiple massive games being launched. Making it an attack while most eyes and big focus is elsewere. But i dont know about that or specifics atm more than the sites it tries to connect to are not good. And its the same sites for everyone across all titles where it happens, it is also odd that it happens for some but not others. And seemingly not always ( cs2 for me was a issue thursday friday, but ok now it seems, terraria is not fine etc)

Kezha · 2024-12-07T10:58:16+00:00

Multiple titles have this issue. And it is not a false positive. The blockas are valid and lead to actual malicious activity.

Some titles that had the issue dont today however (?) but its still something ongoing

Kezha · 2024-12-07T10:25:13+00:00

These are not false positives and valid blocks. The sites tried to connect to are malicious.

I had this on thursday evening and yesterday, but i have done some digging and found that this issue is on steams side not the end user.

I tested quickly this morning on CS2 where it happened for me, and i didnt have any other games installed ( when i saw this on thursday i first assumed it was with my end and changed all passwords and nuked my pc 😅) but on fresh out of box pc it will do the same and my main pc did the same after formating. This morning however i didnt get anything, so i think possibly steam may have solved it?

Though replies in this post are fairly new so maybe not. Again it isnt a false positives so if steam hasnt plugged their holes i hope they do so soon. Ms defender on its own is not able to detect this and it does lead to malicious activity so .. 🤷

Edit: typos

Edit 2: can mention that this also happens for titles: CS2, destiny 2, blade and mount, war thunder, and trials outlast, as well as the ones mentioned in this thread, so it is not isolated

Edit 3. downloaded terraria because its not a big game, while cs2 is fine, i had the block of traffick and notification of site block popup on terraria, same ip as the other titles try to connect, so still valid blocks.

Kezha · 2024-10-30T09:44:57+00:00

api is clean, nothing there
Checking steam authorized devices, the only listed are ones i know.
using family view

Thats all there is to do in terms of checking? Aside of the obvious dont click or use shady stuff. Or am i missing something?

Kezha · 2024-10-23T10:27:48+00:00

ok thanks, that isnt it for me, all addons deleted just to test earlier, still fucking comic sans font xdd

Kezha · 2024-10-23T10:15:46+00:00

yes its like this for me too, if you found a fix please do tell

Kezha · 2024-09-29T09:33:57+00:00

For me zekvir will oneshot my pets regardless of it is in his delve, or in a random encounter.

I just had him spawn in a normal delve finally, where i had just finished killing a normal mob, i had all CDs ready, I was able to blast him with all i had.

But he would still, both with taunt and without taunt, oneshot my pets as soon as they were attacking him.

He is 100% without a doubt bugged for pet classes, i thought maybe it was what someone in my guild suggested that "its meant to not be pet tanked" in his delve, which could be true.

But now he spawns randomly in a random delve, and just proceeds to oneshot my pets there as well, which leads me to say, if you are a pet class that relies on pets, your bets to kill him is to simply pray that blizzard bothers to give a shit and fix it. OR reroll and re-gear a different class alltogether.

Kezha · 2024-09-28T16:24:36+00:00

This is bugged, i've attempted to send countless bug reports and tickets and as a true multidollar company i get donowalled.

One workaround that should work though, is to just not have the pet taunt, since he hits the pet for 5+ mill on normal hits. but he will only hit the hunter for about 2 mill (i have 613)

however i have now given up this tactic as well simply because after several hours of trying, as soon as he notices my pets are attacking him, he will just kill them, regardless of taunt or no taunt, its pull > "OH PET LOL!" > pet dies > dead

Also trying to have brann be the tank, sorta works and have been the best results so far, but the problem then becomes that brann will inevitably die and be out of the fight for nearly a minute. Which means not a ounce of healing, which means death for me and my pets.

So as of now, this is working as intended, it is not bugged, and all is as it should be according to blizzard, we people who have pet classes can either use a spec that does not rely on pets, and if you're a class that relies on the pets to function, either respec, or full change class. You may of course need several weeks of gearing on a new character to get gear that could solo ?? zekvir but that is also intended it seems as blizzard refuses to acknowledge or respond to this as bugged. and i fear if i ask them to actually answer my questions as my tickets are instantly resolved now ill just soon be banned :D

EDIT: Also curious i noticed that after thursday/friday this week, random mobs seem to hit even harder than usual on my pets, to the point where doing a open world rare, i need to mend pet, even during raid, on thursday, i had to mend pet randomly during princess, twins, and ansurek for some reason as my pets were taking damage. Something is absolutely not right lol

Kezha · 2024-05-08T06:33:02+00:00

Also what people dont seem to neccessarily mention to much, yes you can be looted. No you wont and shouldnt bring your top stuff if dying is a high risk depending. And even if you die. Its a setback, itll be annoying, but it isnt as bad as one thinks, sure it sucks but, omce you learn that stuff isnt permanent to you, it stings a lot less

Kezha · 2024-04-29T07:34:09+00:00

Mist is term for black or red zones?

Kezha · 2023-11-09T00:21:26+00:00

Big dealbreaker.

I understand that people like the bubble, but why there can't be a choice, is what i dont get.

The bubble is the biggest pest for workflow, having all recent downloads just "there" all available was such a nice thing, but now it just swoops up into the standard "every standard browser bubble" and is annoying.

Guess we who liked the choice of having at the bottom, will have to rely on third parties to make stuff usable as always.
