My Steam Account Was Hacked After Gift Link Scam

I am beyond frustrated with Steam’s lack of support after my account was hacked. A malicious individual, pretending to be my friend, sent me a gift link through Steam. Believing it to be part of a giveaway, I provided a verification code, only to have my account stolen immediately.

Before I realized what was happening, the hacker had changed my Gmail and phone number associated with the account, leaving me completely locked out. Steam has no accessible call center or email support to assist in such situations. I’ve spent over ₺2000 on this account, not to mention the countless hours I’ve invested. If I cannot recover my account, I might quit gaming altogether. Steam must urgently address this issue and help recover my account.
