Which games would you like to see given away? Let us know in the comments down below!

Hi everyone!
There's been an increasing amount of tickets lately, and little staff to help me manage them. (Which I totally understand since this is a volunteer job and everyone has lives. Thanks Nøkkenbuer for helping me out!) Majority of my free time after my actual job has been going towards tickets the last few months, instead of actual coding the website.

There's a few more positions open on our team.

We're currently looking for Moderators. You'll be responsible for closing fake giveaways, unlisting free games, following up with reported giveaways, and helping people via tickets, group chat, email, and discussion forums.

Must have:

• Strong in the English language
  
• Willingness to add people to your friends list and help them
  
• People like you, and you're not rude
  
• Online all the time

Since I don't make any profit through the website, I will try to regularly host exclusive giveaways for active moderators.

Here's where you can apply. Please email us a summary of why you should be a moderator here: [email protected]

This position has the same responsibilities as the previous post, except you're also responsible for managing/supporting other moderators, and recruiting more if necessary. Moderators will contact you for advice and/or questions. You're basically taking my role, since I'd like to concentrate on making the website better through bug fixes and new features.

Must have:

• We are not looking for someone to simply take orders and execute them; we are looking for someone to lead
  
• Positive attitude
  
• Strong in the English language
  
• Willingness to add people to your friends list and help them.
  
• People like you, and you're not rude
  
• Online all the time.

Those two positions are the most critical right now, but if you're interested in helping out a different way then let me know via email. For example: Twitch, Video, Social Media, Art, etc.

We've been getting reports of a new version of the "look at my friend's screenshots" spam-scam going around, but this time it seems to be targeted towards specific groups and websites, including ours.

Previously the scammers sent out trade offers using (bit.ly and other tiny url sites), with supposed "pictures" of what ever virtual item they were offering, but it's actually a .src file which gets run when the victim double clicks on it and executes it, hijacking their accounts. After a hijack, it sends out links to their friends as well.

Here's the info from https://blog.malwarebytes.org/fraud-scam/2014/11/rogue-scr-file-links-circulating-in-steam-chat/

The same thing seems to be happening now but for free items and other type of "contests" groups. The one targeted towards us "offers" "one of 5 items from a contest of steam companion". Please do not click on those links.

All giveaway are run on our official website using a secure connection. (SSL HTTPS) (I.E. https://steamcompanion.com/ ). You can check what you've won via your Won list[steamcompanion.com] We may host some giveaways on our social media accounts from time to time as well. (Facebook[www.facebook.com], Twitter, Google+[plus.google.com]).

Hope that helps. Stay safe.
