Barely 3 years ago, Valve started requiring the Steam Nimble App's 2-factor authentication pro trading and other features like competitive play. In retort to public vociferation, Jesse and Geel from Scrap.tf created a desktop authenticator workaround, which would effectively emulate the smartphone app on your computer if you couldn't get a smartphone. Valve may not come with their verdict, but the desktop authenticator provided a much-needed surrogate pro people who couldn't without difficulty get a phone apropos to their power of tenancy, fiscal commitment, or other reasons, but weren't willing to give up trading. Even so, bypassing 2-factor authentication in Steam comes with some pensive liabilities [стим гвард на пк]

Unfortunately, Jesse and Geel did not appointment book a website on the side of the Desktop Authenticator, and kept it exclusively on Github. Anyway, in the vanguard long a website claiming to be from Jesse and Geel up till popped up. This website forked the protocol from the Desktop Authenticator, with a couple extra lines added to send a copy of your Steam account to the scammer to his server. If you handle his version of the claim, you're not fitting bypassing SteamGuard, you're effectively giving him access to it, in counting up to your account password.

Multiple people experience reported this website as malicious, but upwards a year later the spot remains astir and fabulously, restful looming the cork of Google's search results since "Steam Desktop Authenticator". It doesn't look like the emotionally upset is prevalent away no matter how many people news it or moan so, I would like to put in mind of all that you should only download the Steam Desktop Authenticator from Jessecar's Github here

If you have any misgiving as to whether or not the spurious Steam Desktop Authenticator I'm talking just about is, in fact, malicious, here is a abstract but intricate overview and encypher critique from someone I asked to opt for a look earlier this year. He was accomplished to recognize the copy from that website does in fact send your Steam credentials to the scammer's server. With as varied people who have reported the purlieus to no avail, I don't regard as either Google or the website's hosting group possess any engagement in enchanting action no stuff how sundry reports it gets, so we lack to be aware of this scam.
