Crap, I best talk to my bank manager tomorrow to block any foreign sales and keep an eye on 'unknown' transactions.

That and go through all my accounts to chance the password again.

I heard the forums were hacked a few days ago, but wow, not the servers themselves. This is bad.

If you have Steam Guard on.
It should not be too much of a issue. Your email will get sent a security code for when your account is logged onto any computer or browser other then yours.
Credit Cards yeah, I'd check constanstly and Steam does refund fraudulent purchases and revokes licenses bought with them. Just be sure to report it.

Also somewhere. The SDF is comparing this to the Sony disaster.

You know, I wouldn't be surprised if this was funded by EA in an attempt to damage Steam's reputation. I use paypal when I buy stuff on Steam so I should be safe.

Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts... perhaps the fear of a loss of power.
