Just a heads up guys if you use Steam, looks like its now become the target of possible account hacks like WoW. I got this email last night and the links go to a bogus web address that attempts to trick people into giving up login credentials for Steam.

I received one of those too.  I haven't taken the time to follow up on it, though.  Is there a way to report this to Valve?

I found this link for overall Steam security practices, but nothing directly related to reporting phishing attempts.  I have submitted a ticket asking Steam Support for clearer instructions (because they state in that post that you should report it... just not how).
No matter how often you refill the gene pool, there's always a shallow end.
