m0NESY's Steam account hacked — CS2 pro player falls victim to hackers

News

Translated with AI from the Russian original.

Some virtual items on Steam hold great value and are relentlessly hunted.

Counter-Strike 2 is not just about competitive matches. A variety of skins are available for the Valve game, with some models listed for sale on the market for thousands of dollars. 

Various scammers and hackers attempt to obtain such virtual assets. Even professional players are not immune to malicious actors.

Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov was targeted; recently, the esports player shared with his followers: “Steam account hacked, ******”.

As experience shows, in such cases, Valve support restores access to the original owner quite promptly.
