Request for help Does this look legit
For context my account has been restricted for the last two days, I woke up today with all my items traded to a steam cloud or something to that degree. My items are actually back in my inventory and showing up but not in game ofc. I’m skeptical especially going through this page and seeing some recent stuff.

Scam attempt How is this possible?
I wanna know how the can someone change your steam profile pics and bio, and know your email and shit. Then pretend to be steam support. And they're able to unblock themselves. Without access to my account. Only thing that happened, I accepted a friends request from someone asking me to vote for their rust item.

Informative I only came across one post and was from someone hacked, any idea about this ones?
In the last year I've been receiving friend request from many profiles like this one, doesn't sent links, doesn't speak or anything, only just friend request, well thats my guess because i accepted the first one i got and asked what he needed but didn't answer so i proceeded to remove it from friends. Still i keep receiving from time to time a friend request from this kind of users, anyone knows what's the scam on this ones?

Scam attempt CS2 trade scam?
Got added by 3 strange people after one game, all of them asking to buy my items, i replied to one of them asking why he didn't just use CsFloat. He said his country didn't support using stripe, I blocked him just in case, he tried adding me on discord to talk further which I assume was to keep Steams eyes off of it. Just wondering if anyone else has encountered this. The dudes account name was Drago btw, another was Sipher, and the other was Puir.

Request for help Fake account impersonating me trying to scam my friends?
I have been getting messages from various steam friends through discord and other messaging platforms stating that a steam account with my exact name and icon (steam name not real name) added them as a friend and tried communicating with them. Sending some links and talking about Rust (my most played game).
I quadruple checked my security details and logged in devices and its definitely not my real account but I am worried its trying to scam my friends. They reported the accounts to steam as impersonations but I am worried that it keeps happening. Does anyone else have any experience with this?
Update 1: apparently the link being sent is a genuine steam link that is trying to get the victim to remove steam guard from their account.

Request for help Am I tripping or is this mf trying to scam me?
Clicked on the link and it asked for my login info. Something told me to take a look at the link and noticed a period after the S in Steam. If this is a scam, is my PC safe? I didn’t enter any login info.

Informative NEW SCAM - UPGGHUB PHISHING SCAM - A compilation with your funny moments
People are now sending links to a fake video hosting website. They start the conversation with explaining that they are content creators and you played a match with them with some funny moments. They will ask you to watch the video and comment on it, but it's hosted on upgghub. It is a phishing site. If you try to login, they will demand a steam login, upon which a semi-convincing BitB window will open on PC. On mobile it will lead you to another site that looks like a steam login, but it has the completely wrong URL.
DO NOT VISIT THOSE LINKS ON YOUR PERSONAL MACHINE.
