Hello everyone,

I have noticed recently multiple people on my Steam friends list reach out asking to vote for their friend's CS2 team so they can compete in a tournament. The scam asks you to go to a website, you would click a vote button next to the UK school of this team where it prompts you to log into your Steam account.

Valve has made an FAQ on the scam https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/7958-1D76-CA26-7BB4

A few RH members appear to have fallen to it so be aware if you are messaged out of the blue.

You know a platform has made it big when their user base is targeted for scams through it.
