Защита от скама через подмену трейда и Steam API

Steam Web API scams prey on players logging into illegitimate tournament platforms, fake skin price checking hubs, or phishing Faceit verification portals. Once a user enters Steam Guard credentials into a phishing prompt, scammers don't change passwords—they generate a secret Steam Web API Key. When you attempt a legitimate trade, the scammer's bot intercepts the event, cancels the original offer via API, mimics the counterparty's avatar and username, and sends an identical duplicate trade request. If you confirm this on your Steam Mobile Authenticator without verifying the account creation date, your items go to the scammer. Learn how institutional safeguards eliminate this vulnerability in our Safe Escrow Guide.

To sanitize your account, execute the following protocol: 1) Visit steamcommunity.com/dev/apikey and hit 'Revoke My Steam Web API Key'. The field should remain completely blank unless you develop third-party software. 2) Go to Account Settings and select 'Deauthorize all other devices' to invalidate stolen web session tokens. 3) Reset your Steam password and regenerate your Steam Trade URL. 4) Unlink unauthorized third-party apps from your Faceit and Steam settings.
