This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Every single time I log into my Steam account or sell/transfer in-game items, I’m forced to confirm the action through the Steam Mobile app — a security tool Valve swears will keep my account and hard-earned digital property safe.
But at 3:16 AM on March 18, while I was fast asleep, a thief broke into my account with zero push notifications, zero required confirmations from my mobile app, and zero effective oversight from Valve. They proceeded to steal 8 of my most valuable in-game items, worth a total of 400 USD, and sent them straight to their own account.
I gathered every piece of evidence of this theft and submitted it to Valve, only for them to brush me off completely. They claimed they were not involved, and that there was nothing they could do to fix the situation.
I’ve spent over 5000 USD on this platform. I trusted Valve’s promise that their mobile authenticator would protect my assets. Instead, Valve’s broken security system let a robber straight into my account, and now they’re washing their hands of the whole incident — leaving me stuck with the full 400 USD loss, a loss that never would have happened if their advertised security features actually worked as promised.

Claimed loss: 400 USD

Desired outcome: get back my items
