What Is API Scamming?
What is an API Scam?
An API scam is people who gets access to your account.

• How do they get access to my account?: They get access to your account from a third-party site.

• What do they do after gaining access to your account?: They make an API on your account. When they made an API on your account.

• What happends when they got my API?: The next time you trade your skins for example to your friend. ALL your skins get traded to the scammers account. And your skins will be lost forever.

How do I avoid API scams?
How to avoid API scams:

• Dont log into ANY third-party sites - make sure to search on google if the site is legit, before logging in!

• Always check your API before you trade:
https://steamproxy.net/dev/apikey


• You are safe if your API key looks like that:




• You are probably not safe if it looks like that:




• I would recommend to revoke your API key if it looks like that.
How to secure your steam account?
• You can put Mobile-Authenticator on so you will get a code every time you log in.

• Make sure to not share your username and password with anyone.

• Stay safe everyone! And dont let anyone scam you for your skins.


I hope this bad guide was a little help, please share this guide to avoid scams!

Just a heads up to any and all members of this group. There are an immense number of suspicious accounts as members here. Extremely dangerous people to be associating with. Ive seen quite a few members who share the same 3 or 4 steam groups, made for the purposes of keeping their alts grouped up. Any potential trader needs to do their research into the person they are trading. Getting randomly added by MULTIPLE people from here, asking me to join their tournament team, the not so new anymore scam tactic we've been seeing around on all profiles. Common variable? These groups I mentioned, including this one. NEVER DO A CASH WITH ANYONE UNLESS THEY HAVE AMPLE CASH TRADE REP ON SPECIFIC TRADING REP WEBSITES! For further details refer to actual traders, go find some they are out there. Best of luck to you all.
