how the fuck is it impossible for me to get a decent, not taken, username in most online games or launchers but these scammers can change their games to whatever the heck they want?
Shouldn’t be hard to implement a check if the game name and other info is already listed in the store somewhere else…
Why even try this? You can refund games within two hours of gametime or two weeks from purchase date. The moment someone launches the game, it’s immediatley obvious that it’s not Helldivers and smashes that refund button.
If a kid’s got their parent’s credit card, I doubt they will bother with requesting a refund. They’ll just smash other ‘buy’ buttons until the game they want is downloaded. I’m sure some adults are like this, too…
There’s probably a decent number of people that buy a game and don’t install it immediately. I often do this when something is on sale. By the time they realize they didn’t get what they were after, it may be outside the refund window.
Just noticed this with Last Epoch yesterday as well. There is a false store listing it at $60 usd.
I was looking for a way to report it to Steam but couldn’t locate a method to do so.
There is a little flag icon somewhere on the right of the store page. That’s how you report.
Use the Support menu?
This could do a lot of harm to Steam,they need to get ahead of this quickly.
