Will you ladies cut it out. They'll reactive your account, I don't see why they wont.
I didn't even do anything wrong :saddowns:
[QUOTE=Gummylamb;20966941]Stop being dumb, they wanted to stop the account from blowing more of the credit card's money, giving a warning would waste more time.[/QUOTE]
They disabled it about 4 days after the last transaction I made. They're really rushing to stop this criminal!
I feel pretty bad for Linelor, first he lost alot in Iraq; now this happens.

That's whats bugging the shit out of me, why would they wait this long to take action, but then continue to have your account deactivated.
[QUOTE=Gummylamb;20967051]How am I an idiot, I responded to your post that had nothing to do with "credit theft stopping is ok"[/QUOTE]
And before I edited that in I was still of the opinion:

If I'm reading this thread correctly Linelor was asked and gave answers several times.
So yeah, they are bastards.

I clearly edited that of course.
I know that's an automated message, but I find it funny.
[QUOTE=kellybear;20966528]Because you're [del]an irritable cunt?[/del] in a bad mood?[/QUOTE]
That's a little unnecessary.
This is the thing I don't like about Steam. They can take away all your games just because they feel like it.
Don't get me wrong though, I like Steam. I just don't want all the games I bought taken because Steam thinks I stole a credit card.
They probably thought it was a card stolen by chinese gold farmers, since everquest is one of those games. They didn't want them making all that money playing games to support their nine kids, parents and grandparents.

It would be different if it was all rapid, I never contacted them, and it was all to new steam accounts. All of the transactions were to long time customers, were from my IP, with my card that I've used before, and I even sent them a question thing asking to fix it because I wasn't doing anything wrong and they did.
Who knows, they might have thought that someone got into your house, logged on your computer, and used the credit card on your account to buy all the games. Don't worry, this happened to my friend about a year ago, and it was sorted out in less than a week.
Maybe the steam credit they are implementing will help solve this in the future?
Funny, I spent about 140 pounds on game gifts in about 4 hours and this didn't happen to me.
Where did you buy the games from? steam? they might htink you stole them.
