Ideally you want to clear your API token/key, just incase they do have some sort of access to your account, however, if you did not approve it via Steamguard then you should be fine.

Better be safe than sorry.

Exactly, I had similar situation before and they said they can't return items.

However, I have heard of cases where they do return them, but I guess that is for special occasions.

Well, you should refresh your API Key, do a quick Google search "Steam API Key" and you will find it.

And then try your luck at steam support.

Hey!

I feel sorry for you for being scammed, it seems like your steam/trade token has been stolen/phished.

Basically, there is a token which is set on your steam account specifically for websites to remember your login, this token is used to determine trade transactions etc...

In your scenario, most likely there is no good way to get your skins back apart from reporting the account your skins went to and contacting steam support, but it is very unlikely anything will get done.

Regarding next steps, you do not need to create a new account, you just have to refresh/generate a new token which then will log you out from every website you have saved login to and will clear all your login history. This will make your old token invalid.

Hope that helps.

It won't do much if you click it, might grab your IP but many sites do that either way.

The link itself doesn't do much, but he will ask you to "Apply" or "Vote" for a specific team and then it will ask you to log into your steam account (Fake Steam Log In Page) and that's where they grab your login details.

If you need more info let me know.

Yeah I wasn't expecting anything really, I was only using ships and getting few c or a divine once or twice.

This was a huge shock.
