I should of done this sooner, there is a scam going on on steam for awhile now. The way it gets you is by a link for free steam games, but don't fall for it or you'll lose your account and your stuff.

SO WATCH OUT AND DO NOT CLICK ON ANY LINKS FOR FREE STEAM GAMES OR ANYTHING ELSE LIKE THAT OR ELSE D:!!

I've been given a Bob coin from Mr. Bob, a life time supply of cookies from Blonde-Unknown, some Internet Chocolate from the Full Throttle mod team, and some Assorted Weapons from Høbbesy.

You'd be surprised at how many fall for it, what's worse is that after it gets your account it uses it to post the message all over steam, your groups, on workshops pages and your friends pages.

A link for free games through the steam thingo or on a net browser?

I question the general assumption that i am inherently deficient in the area of grammar and sentence structure

I think the steam thingo, but maybe the net browser too.

When was the last time you got something free from some random dude on steam? Or anywhere for that matter? These scams have been around for ages and should be pretty easy to avoid. Just don't be stupid. If you fall for one of these, it's your own damn fault for not having a clue how the internet works these days. Anything that says "free" on the cover should be 90% of the times considered a hoax or a scam.
