Phishers on Steam

[Rylund]

Phishing is the reason why I keep my steam profile comments friends only.

I get atleast 2 phishing bot friend invites everyday. Not sure why the amount is so low, but one day I got about 5 at the same time.

I always thought that phishing bots usually target rich profiles as in, high steam level, large inventory, inventories that have specific items in them etc. etc.. So I keep my inventory completly private for myself, so that phishing bots have one less reason to add me.

They dont have any specific targetstar, I for example only have an inventory worth around 2-3 bucks and I still get a few friend request.
