Steam account disabled due to christmas gift giving thread - General

I got my account disabled today because a gifter from the GGT, I guess, didn't want to pay for the gift and it disabled my account. Is there anything I can do to get it back?

This is the wrong place, there's a steam section.

Really? Could you pinpoint me to it?

You got phished!

I've had my account disabled before.. I contacted steam for wrongfully disabling my account and I got it back.

Merry Christmas.

I got the same thing. It was Mr.Pie, he gifted me Darksiders and that got revoked today and a few hours later I got my account disabled.

If you guys get a gift from that dude, don't accept it.

Why Pie why?

[QUOTE=Pascall;27576322]If you guys get a gift from that dude, don't accept it.[/QUOTE] I got the gift during the sales, they must have just started cracking down and disabling everyone who got a gift from him.

Who was that kid anyways? I don't remember a Mr. Pie and he's not on my friend's list.

[QUOTE=t0cketty;27572203]Isn't that just Games and Mods? :v: Already done. I didn't know there were only gold fish swimming around FT[/QUOTE] Yes, but i'm sure they know more about it. The only reason I said anything was because I've seen a lot of steam questions get resolved there. I was just trying to help, sorry.

Me too, fucking Mr.Pie...

Wow, u ninja.

Add the name of the guy to your Steam support tickets if you haven't done so already

Anyway, I think his account is disabled too, I remember he had almost 150 games, now he has 82.

[QUOTE=WhatTheFox;27576395]Anyway, I think his account is disabled too, I remember he had almost 150 games, now he has 82.[/QUOTE] He got hit with a fraudulent card apparently, so now everyone he gifted is getting taken down too.

Wow, lots of people got their account disabled because of this ass...

probably used his mom's credit card

Darn, I hope everybody gets their accounts back (including me).

[QUOTE=Pascall;27576425]probably used his mom's credit card[/QUOTE] Wouldn't be surprised at all.

And I thought he was nice...

You guys should be able to get your accounts back. I don't see why you would be punished because his credit card is faulty.

Yeah, if we don't then that's just ridiculous.

Any accounts tied to a redeemed gift from a fraudulent source may be disabled." Uh...

I saw that so I said something in my ticket about punishing people for not knowing is wrong and just flat out stupid.
