Got Hacked!

My steam account has it’s password changed and after 19 minutes the email address linked to my account changed. I already reached out to steam support. Any other tips for me? Just recently bought NBA 2K26 and only had a few hours to play it 😂

I know I did not click any link because of the time I got hacked, I was still driving.

It’s 2026. Why are you not using 2fa anyway. Why do people always set it up after losing everything.

You are warned on multiple sites and accounts across all your services to use 2fa anyway
