Idk, if this is a new or old scam, but it's the first time I got something like this and not from a stranger. I got the link per DM from my brothers Discord account, guess he was hacked.

Link was with steamrcommunity and after clicking shop the whole site collapsed, be cautious about every link you get and take care

Better to wait for the Nigerian prince offering a free 100$ gift card.

The other day, I got a direct message from someone claiming to be a 30-year-old widow.
She said she wanted me to receive her late husband’s 300 million yen fortune—but I’d need to send her a 30,000 yen fee first.

So I replied, “Just deduct the 30,000 yen from the 300 million and send me the remaining 299,970,000 yen.”

I haven’t heard back since.
Maybe she died too?

You might laugh, but at work I have to deal with a lot of Japanese investors who wanted to invest in our company. But first they were waiting from money from overseas (Dubai, etc). Of course, every single one of the overseas banks, etc. wanted various types of fees before transferring the money. It was very very very difficult to convince the Japanese investors that they were all scams.

LMAO! Well played.

Over 10 years ago, I use to get scam and telemarketer phone calls at least 3 times a day. Eventually it started getting worse with calls 10 times a day. After 2 weeks of this I had enough and decided to take action, the next phone call from a number I didn't recognise, I answered, "Hello, insert local area name Police Department, Sergeant Bradford speaking, how can I help?" ... they quickly hung up and I didn't receive a single telemarketer or scam call for over 5 years!!

Yes I know it is technically a crime to impersonate a police officer but think under the circumstances a little white lie goes a loooong (5 year) way.

When you think something is too good to be true, it's probably because it is.

With me, I got this link through someone from my friend list @ Steam... but with a "free game" offer instead a gift card. I only ignored it (I even couldn't alert the owner's account because I only have him added on Steam and, if he was really hacked, then, the one who would get my message will be the hacker and not the owner) ._.

A Discord friend had their account hijacked recently as well, got a message from them myself. My response to the person was less than polite.

One trick they try to use is links that displayed as text, such as the response I posted above. A very clear indication of this though is these hidden links want to appear as other links but can't. They need to cut out the http:// otherwise it fails. In the image embedded below, I show

  • A regular link
  • An attempt to hide a link behind another link (which did not work)
  • The hidden link that is using an incomplete link to pretend to be a Steam link

If the link appears like the third, do not trust it. It is not the link they want you to think it is.
