Trading update: if you change your Steam name, you won’t be able to trade for 2-4 hours
New Trade Hold Update 🚨
Apparently, when you change your Steam name, you now get a 2-4 hours trade hold.
On top of that, getting a new API Key now requires Mobile Authentication (info by @pricempire)

This will make life harder for the API scammers
hey it’s me ur brother
Hell yeah
Can anyone explain to me how this makes API scams harder? I’m unfamiliar
When I got downvoted bad on suggesting the API change: [https://www.reddit.com/r/Steam/comments/17kp8o7/if_api_scam_is_rampant_why_not_make_adding_api/](https://www.reddit.com/r/steam/comments/17kp8o7/if_api_scam_is_rampant_why_not_make_adding_api/)
That’s a good change !
Nice change would be stacking it within some time. The more you change the name, the longer period. Could reset within month or something.
Thanks, finally!
I literally got scammed for my bayo fade yesterday… really pissed off about the timing but I’m glad noone will have to go through this anymore
