A leak of old text messages sent to Steam customers with one-time codes for logins was “not a breach of Steam systems,” Valve says in a post published Wednesday. Valve’s response follows news that a hacker is allegedly in possession of 89 million user records and put them up for sale for $5,

Valve has addressed Steam's security breach reported earlier this week, a leak which allegedly involved over 89 million user records. Fortunately, it apparently isn't as bad as it initially seemed.

Valve has responded to reports of a massive Steam data breach, insisting that Steam data was not leaked. Reports of the leak originated from a LinkedIn post by Underdark.ai, which claimed that Steam data was being sold on the Dark Web. Valve revealed that the leak consisted of older texts and was not actionable as a threat to Steam users.
