Know the threats

A field guide to Steam scams.

The six most common methods in CS2 and TF2 trading, and the signal that gives each away.

№ 01Critical

API Key Hijack

A fake site creates an API key on your account and silently intercepts every trade offer you send.

Flags accounts tied to confirmed hijack reports.
№ 02Critical

Phishing Links

Fake Steam login pages steal credentials, often dressed up as trading sites or tournament signups.

Phishing reports lower the score and cap repeat offenders.
№ 03High

Item Switch

A high-value item is swapped for a lookalike right before you confirm the trade.

Confirmed switches count against Community standing.
№ 04High

Impersonation

A trusted trader’s name, avatar and profile are copied to borrow their reputation.

A new account with a copied name shows as young and low-level.
№ 05High

Fake Middleman

Someone offers to hold items during a trade, then disappears with them.

Pending and confirmed reports surface on the profile.
№ 06High

PayPal Chargeback

Pay with PayPal, receive the items, then claim the payment was unauthorised.

Trade bans and economy flags drop the score to 15 at most.
