Subject : Ergent Steam Verification

Dear steam user.
In this time, we ask all of out users to validate their ownership to ensure that we have no
unused accounts, nor empty ones.
Please reply to this email with your account information such as username, password and email.

Thank you.
VALVe Staff.

Anyone else gotten this yet?

It must be a joke. I mean, ergent? LOL.

I got a pretty bad one from Capitol One yesterday. It said something along the lines of "bad guys have taken over our computer system, you must login to this website to stop the bad guys".

 

[xcellerate]

take that email, and go to google and type in "gay porn newsletters" and register it to everyone.

Or else you wont have your steam account stolen! And who wants that to happen?

 

[Raziaar]

Nobody.

OMFG It's ERGENT?!

DOO EET!!

It pisses me off that people even bother to send crap like this out. Validate an account? Valve already knows your user name AND password, and you better believe that they know if you use your account (you login everytime you play), so why people waste their time is beyond me.

they are looking for the same people who think the passing lane is the 'fast lane', or go "wow" when they see HD tv advertised over their non-HD tv.

 

[Darkwolf]

Because some people are stupid enough to fall for it. They have barely an inkling of personal security.

EDIT: I can honestly say that 'wow'ing to non HD, HD tv is something I am yet to do... I must try it sometime

 

[cdubs87]

Yet I can't help but feeling that their HDTV viewed over my crappy one really does look better......maybe it's like those Claratin commercials, where they peel of the layer of "allergies," only they just peel it off over the HDTV instead (Crappy TV = Allergens, HDTV= Claratin Clear!).

 

[Krynn72]

cdubs... you ****ing win!

 

[Jintor]

Sign him up to the worst kind of porno avaliable on the internets.

 

[Darkwolf]

I agree! Lol. Wait... we're talking gay right?

<.<

 

[99.vikram]

No, shemales!

 

[Darkwolf]

D:

Give me a picture of your desktop. We must scan it for... suspicious folders.

 

[Beerdude26]

It's ERGENT !

[CyberPitz]

[Acepilotf14]

:0 omfg, I need to send him my second account a made after I couldnt buy anything, but I relogged in, and I could buy stuff, so now it's just idling. Hehe.. it's going to be hilarious when all he sees are the free games... maybe he'll reply!

 

[WhiteZero]

I got this one too.
His email account has apparently been deleted.
