So I checked my email again, and strangely Steam had sent me a second code. I got the code, entered it into the login page, and was told the code was incorrect.

I was welcomed like any other Steam login, and was then told I needed a code sent to my email address to complete the login process. So I used an old email address on the real Steam site to create a new account, then I logged in with those credentials, expecting to be told my account name does not exist. So I decided to create a new account and see what happens then. So I used some profane words in the username and password, and was told the account does not exist. So I had a look at them and initially decided to see what happens if I enter an non-existent account and random password. Clicking it then either opens a popup window (Which in my case, using Opera GX, did not allow me to see the URL used to log into Steam), while the other takes you to /something/login on the actual site itself. After clicking the links, the site gave me a quick run down of the Discord Nitro perks, the subscription time, etc. I was already feeling like this is likely a scam, before I even saw the sketchy looking links. These are 1 month or 3 month subscriptions, and all you have to do is sign up with your Steam account. So here's how it starts: Some random user posts a few links in a Discord server claiming there's a free Discord Nitro giveaway. I was 100% expecting the account to be stolen in some way or another, and used it with the sole purpose of seeing how this scam works, and if it was possible to recover the account at all. I created it years ago, forgot about it, and tried to create a new account just to see what these scammers were up to, only to find out about the pre-existing account. I want to preface this by saying that the account that was stolen in the following story was not one I ever planned on using.
