We tried out one of these malicious URLs and were redirected to a site that wanted us to install a Chrome browser extension to continue. Umawing said there are more than 100 of these bogus web addresses waiting to lure in online gamers. The links to these phishing pages seem like something that might be legitimate:, , and so on. No matter - the scammers now have your Steam username and password and can do with them what they will. If you do log into the fake Steam login window, you'll be told that the login attempt failed and that "the account name or password that you have entered is incorrect," whether that's true or not. That in turn generates what looks like a Steam sign-in window, but as Umawing noted, "it's actually not a separate window but a part of the website itself."
