LRR Steam Group Hacked
Someone in the LRR steam group was duped and is sending out messages to people asking you to go to a website and enter your information. (This isn't hacking, per se, but people usually say it is anyway.)
Remember folks, don't do this. That's how they get your information.

I can't think of a signature.
What if you were at home and then college and at home your internet is not that good and therefore you aren't on the internet enough to know whats fake and what's not, so you you believe the fake message and put in your information.
You know, hypothetically, of course.
Changing your password would do the trick, wouldn't it.

I got this message earlier this evening. I reported the incident to the Steam support site.
Because the LRR group is public, anyone can join. The account sending these messages is a brand new one created specifically for the purpose of luring people to the site mentioned. No-one was necessarily duped in order for this to happen. Regardless: it is a problem, so thanks CyberTractor for bringing it to the attention of the forum.

Okay, here's the text of the message.
*WARNING* Due to recent hack attempts we are monitoring Steam accounts VERY closely. We have noticed 2 different IPs have logged into your account recently. In order to verify that YOU are the correct owner we require you to log in (http://www.SteamSecurity.net.tf). Once you log in, your IP will verify who you are and be set to your steam account. *WARNING*
