:D
I love that.
1) Tell the idiot that Valve will never ask for username and password.
2) Later, ask for the idiot's username.
3) And his password.
Both of which he provides.
He was quite cooperative for a phisher. I guess fear of losing Steam access overrides critical thinking. Snap.

Holy crap that is the most horribly designed site ever. After waiting about 10 seconds for it to load (Was about to give up, I figured it did not work because of adblock or something) I decided to run a test and did a reload. 116 requests, totalling 5.2MB. For a page that is only really text content.

But that said that was freaking hilarious! I was reading up on this physhing stuff and it is a very scary reality, these bored teens go around and try to get into random people's accounts by going in help chats and from there they can access all their other accounts too as they can just keep getting more info on the person to get other services to reset passwords. Once they get access to your email then they pretty much own your whole online life as they can password reset everything else.

You... have never heard of phishing before? And you work in IT?

Dude, that's scary. Phishing can be far more dangerous and exceptionally lucrative than you imagine, beyond simply being some "bored teens." Like, organized crime levels.

Phishing is basically Information Security 101.

"Hey, I'm that guy who's here to do the things on the stuff. Username and password?"

"Huh? Oh, right, ok. That stuff. Here: <username and pass>"

Sometimes it's nearly that simple.
