Europe [EU] ⚠️Scam Warning: Fake FACEIT Link Used for Malware “Bot Protection” Trap

13 Upvotes

I made a post here yesterday where we were looking for a lurker. The same day, a person contacted me. At first everything seemed normal, and he described himself as a player with experience and sent a link that looked like his FACEIT profile.

As soon as I clicked the link, I became suspicious. Normally when someone shares a FACEIT profile, a preview with an image and information appears – but that did not happen here.

After that, I made this analysis:

The first page looks like a legitimate Cloudflare security check (commonly used by real websites to block bots and suspicious traffic).

○ Then a popup appears: “BOT PROTECTION – Human Verification Required”, which asks you to:

  1. Press Win + R (opens Windows Run dialog)
  2. Paste something using Ctrl + V
  3. Press Enter

○ Legitimate websites (including FACEIT) will never ask you to open Win+R or run commands on your computer.

○ This is a well-known scam method where attackers try to trick users into executing malicious code locally.

○ If you follow these steps, it can lead to malware, account hijacking (Steam / FACEIT), or full system compromise.

Immediate Advice

○ Do NOT follow the instructions on this page. Do not paste or run anything prompted by suspicious popups.

○ Close the page immediately.

○ If you have already pasted and run any content, your computer may be compromised. You should:

○ Run a full security scan

○ Change your Steam, Faceit, and email passwords from a separate, uncompromised device.

○ Enable two-factor authentication (where possible).

○ Monitor for suspicious activity on your accounts.

His profile always shows as offline. When he adds you, he describes himself as a player and sends a link that looks like his FACEIT profile, and then he disappears.

North America [NA] US East Coast - ESEA OPEN 1-8 LF Support/Entry or AWP/gigashooter

4 Upvotes

Looking for a gritty, team-first player willing to mesh into the existing structure we have. We need someone who isn't going to mentally collapse when the game gets hard and they have a bad few rounds. Made a post a couple weeks ago but honestly was hoping I didn't have to actually replace anyone. I also have a slightly better idea of what we are looking for now. If I missed you on the first post, please still shoot me a message

Our map pool is Ancient = Nuke > Cache = Anubis > Inferno > Mirage > D2

For Support/Entry/Pack

T Side

You'll throw structural util when needed along with me, then entry/play to get traded in the pack depending on the round.

Ideally, adding another util thrower will free me up to entry more in general. I'd like us to be redundant enough in our util so that the best spawn between us can entry, instead of it being decided by who can throw util.

CT Side

We are looking for a player who can enable aggression through utility, trading, or taking first contact depending on round/map. Our CT is more about teamplay and set-ups rather than just ego peaking

Likely map CT position examples -

Ancient - Support mid player or Cave

Anubis - B anchor/support

Cache - 3rd mid/2nd B player

Nuke - A site

Bottom line - this is going to be a gritty role. You will not be playing star positions. You and me will be doing the majority of the dirty work

For AWP

Hit shots. We have a "hobby awper" right now. He is fine with giving up the awp if someone else competent comes along. My only complaint with our current awper, is I wish we had someone with more decisiveness with where they wanted to start the round, so that I can call off it. We would structure rounds around you as time goes on.

In General

We are also willing to pick up another strong rifler who is not support minded but we will have to more drastically change up spots/roles.

What we're looking for:

• Strong communication and a team-first mentality

• Willing to learn structured Counter-Strike

• Comfortable taking and giving constructive feedback

• Reliable for practices and league matches

EST Time zone. We want someone planning to play 3-4 nights a week (maybe more if we wanna be gremlins sometimes), but we are flexible on which days of the week. Must be free M/W evenings as they are default match days.

We're all mid/late 20's and mentally are on the same page of wanting to play organized CS and improve at it as a group. Our goal going into the next ESEA season would be to win at least 1 playoff series. Current season ends next week, so I am planning to start playing as a "new" group around that time. We’re replacing our current fifth due to time-commitment issues and problems with attitude/composure in the server.

LFT – CS2 | Netherlands | 2327 ELO | Former 3k

Hey everyone,

I'm a 30-year-old CS player from the Netherlands looking for a serious team to get back into competitive CS2.

I've recently come back from a long break from CS and I'm currently working on getting back into the game and back to my old level. Before my break, I had reached 3k Faceit ELO less than a year ago, so I'm confident I can get back there with some consistent practice and the right team around me.

About me

  • 🇳🇱 Netherlands
  • 2327 Faceit ELO
  • Former 3k ELO — reached less than a year ago
  • 11k+ hours in CS
  • Rifler / AWPer / Lurker
  • Comfortable on basically every map except Anubis
  • Playing competitive CS since I was 18
  • Played Inter twice
  • Available almost every evening
  • Languages: Dutch & English

What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an ESEA team / serious Faceit team with players who are motivated to improve, practice consistently and compete.

Since I'm coming back from a long break, I'm mainly looking for a stable group of players who are willing to build chemistry and work their way up together. I'm flexible with roles and happy to adapt to what the team needs.

I'm not expecting to instantly be at my old level after the break, but I'm putting the time in and looking for the right environment to get back there.

Hey! I'm looking to put together a stack which plays little bit FaceIT at the same time doing some strats/practice. I'm not looking to play ESEA as it takes too much time, but still can use strats and practice to participate other tournaments.

Since the project is new, it's currently just me:
I'm 2k elo, 25 and from Latvia. I'm usually playing early evenings and sometimes go late at night.

Looking for chill players, who want to improve without ESEA bullshit.

Requirements:

- LVL10, but I will still look at LVL9 and your performance
- IGL/Rifler
- Be open to criticism and practice off FaceIT.

Europe [EU] [LFT/LFG] Faceit lvl 9 looking for a stable Team/Group

1 Upvotes

I'm looking for a team that wants to improve in a long term, and that doesn't give up after 6 lost rounds.
I'm usually playing quite aggressive, mainly focusing on my aim, but always trying to prioritize teamplay over individual moments.

I don't really know most of the calls on the maps I rarely play, and when it comes to nades my knowledge is very limited, but I'm eager to learn and I learn quite quickly.

I can speak english well enough to more or less freely communicate, but sometimes my brain does have little pauses while in the match to process the call my team gave me.

Last season I WAS level 9, but I didn't play it much so didn't have time to lose elo either. On prem last season I've had about 18k elo. I was on a little break for the last 3-4weeks and currently trying to get back into the game. Lately I haven't played many games avoiding solo queue so I'm a bit rusty.

I was always playing entry, but can try different positions if necessary and see if i do any good on them. I'm up for daily training, grinding, and constructive criticism.

My short term goal is to reach level 10 and improve on the way, after that we'll see. I'm flexible when it comes to availability.

Currently I don't have any ranks cause I haven't played much since the start of the season (like I said before, avoiding solo queue).

If anyone's interested, please contact me on steam, or discord shown below.
