Hello, few hours ago an update came to the CS2 that affects trading features.

"Trade protected items" - these items are possible to reverse from trade 7 days after the deal is done. To be able to do this, the items need to be trade protected.
As I understand this, trade protection shouldn´t be possible when you are trading with different game items (possibly gems too) which would make them irreversible.

However that´s only my understanding and it can be wrong, please be sure that before doing any cash trades learn about this to prevent yourself from getting scammed, as the seller could potentionally revert those items.

As of today (14.5.2025) - There have been multiple reports of massive data breach of the Steam platform (Around 89 milion accounts). The data includes login credentials, phone numbers and probably more. (There is even a possibility of payment information being leaked)

It is also being reported that big source of this data breach is from accounts not having two-factor authentication set-up on their accounts.


- Setting up two-factor authentication if you haven´t done so already

- Changing your password

- Look into your mailbox, if you´ve received any security notifications from Steam and if so, act more on the matter.

- For the possibility of payment information getting leaked, monitoring your outcoming payments can be useful.



You can find your security settings including authorized devices in your profile settings. (Link into the settings below)

New guide featuring logins and the function explanation.
I'm working on more guides, however my free time is limited and this one was the one that I could make faster, that also resembles the idea, where it's not a big topic.

This feature still won´t prevent api scam, so don´t stop being cautious.
It does/should counter phishing scams pretty well tho. But that doesn´t mean phishing scams are over, from now on it could be just a waiting game. Whenever an attacker uses your 2FA and doesn´t get logged out, he would be able to interact with your inventory after.
