Izak is an official Polish caster and broadcaster for most major CS tournaments, and has been a YouTuber for over 10 years. He recently had his account stolen because, once again, someone managed to trick Steam Support. He has released more information about how it happened.

Translation:

Regarding the Steam account theft.

Thanks to everyone who stood up for me! It was really great to see such support, even from people I wouldn't have expected.

I recovered the account after a few hours, but not thanks to Steam Support—it was returned by the hacker himself, whose goal was to expose a security flaw in the Steam system.

I received a message from Steam Support regarding the theft only after 5 days, in which they admitted that an employee had made a mistake in this situation.

The hacker gained access to the account after sending Steam an AI-generated photo where he inserted a CD-Key for a Pin that I showed in a YouTube video 10 years ago.

I will definitely record a video on YT in the coming days covering the details, because I believe we need to speak up about this problem.
