Verify your Steam Email!

Last week my second steam account that I have purchased a few games for got hacked. I hadn't used it in at least 6 months but they managed to get ahold of it and change the password and then email. I'm requesting that everyone verifys their email so they won't face this problem.

WHY SHOULD I VERIFY MY EMAIL ADDRESS?

Verifying your email address with Steam improves the security of your Steam Account. Once you've verified your email address with Steam, both your Steam Account password and access to your email account are required in order to make any changes to your Steam Account credentials, such as your password, secret question and answer, and contact email address. This helps further protect your Steam Account from being stolen by a potential phisher.

HOW DO I VERIFY MY EMAIL ADDRESS?

Verifying your email address with Steam is a simple process:

1. Right-click on the Steam icon in the System Tray and select Settings or press the Settings button in Steam's File menu.
2. Click the Verify email address button.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
4. You should then receive an email message from Steam Support.
5. Click the unique link provided in this email message to finish verifying your email address. The web page which then launches will confirm your success.

I already protected my main account but forgot to do it to my second one...

Also, be sure to make your security questions on your e-mail account really difficult. Make a custom question if you can.

Control over your e-mail=control over all accounts linked to it.

yeah, I was reading the replies about it last night.

Dang just did this. Thanks!
