10:59 - ᵀᴴᴱ HUИTΞR: Yes
10:59 - [No calling out]: hi, is that you won 14 000 dollars in csgolucky ????

11:00 - [No calling out]: http://xxxx.xxx.xxx
11:00 - ᵀᴴᴱ HUИTΞR: lol hahhah :D get lost
11:00 - [No calling out] is now Offline.

Well, this happened today. I guess that would be a new way to scam? DO NOT OPEN THE LINK - Its a google drive one and it downloads an external file.

Dude you better check your pc and ask on some forum with the link you clicked, I clicked on such link like 2 years ago and got a file installed without me noticing. Luckily many people clicked on it and there were instructions on how to remove it. It took over your steam account and sent those links to your friends. It spread like a real virus.

One guy lvl2 account with only free games added me too, and he is writing to me sometimes that he has only screen of his inventory and I should check it if I want to trade... I'm writting sometimes with him that I want to trade (but I'm not opening link) and he always sends me it :D

well he is getting mad as he really wants me to check that .png link :p

If you were bored, I would paste his lines into Cleverbot and then paste the response back to drive him crazy.

I always click every shit they send me, because linux users can.
Ah, and usually those script files are poorly written.

i get these fairly frequently (~1 every 2 weeks maybe).
they usually claim its a screenshot of an item they need, link actually downloads a .scr file (screensaver file, which is basically just a .exe with another name) with an icon that looks like a CSGO knife.
no clue what happens if you actually open it, but it can't be good...

It's not new, this is a common and basic way of trying to scam people that has pretty much existed since e-mails started to become mainstream.
