    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    yes :)

    br0kenrabbit says:

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    we logged multiple ips from your account and ned to verifi your information

    br0kenrabbit says:
    My information?

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    we believe someone may have stolen your account mmmm you havent shared youre account infomation with anyone have you?

    br0kenrabbit says:
    No. I don't even have it written down.

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    hmmm maybe a keylogger on you r PC then maybe you need a format?

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Well...

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    if you can verify your account information to me i can insure that only your ip have access to it Its a new security feature were trying because this happens so muchlogin names and passwords aint safe anymroe You know. L:)

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Well

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    dont worry this connect it secure

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Can I be honest with you, Greg?

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    k

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Look, I don't know how you go this MSN account name, don't really care, either.

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Unlike you, I DO work for Valve. Trace my ip and you'll see.

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    huh?

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    bs

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Trace it.

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    how

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Start/run/cmd type Tracert and then my IP address and hit enter.

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    oh k

    br0kenrabbit says:
    As an employee, I know that Valve employees will NEVER contact users over MSN. I also know a valve employee will NEVER ask a user for his/her username and password.

    br0kenrabbit says:
    I'm putting a temporary hold on your Steam account.

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    why?

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Have you read the ToS?

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    Tod?

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    tos

    br0kenrabbit says:
    terms of service

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    were?

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Greg, this is a serious infraction against the Tos. You are at risk of losing your account.

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    why

    br0kenrabbit says:
    I just told you why

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    :(

    br0kenrabbit says:
    I need some information from you if you want me to unlock you account. I'm going to write you up but I will only suspend you account for three days, since this is your first infraction, okay?

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    k

    br0kenrabbit says:
    First, what is the name the account is registered to. Not the user name, the persons real name who created the account. This is for verification purposes.

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    xxxxx xxxxxxx

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Is this you?

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    ya

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Are you the only user of this account?

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
    ya

    br0kenrabbit says:
    Okay, and what is the username

    Greg_ValveOLS says:
