“No mushroom joke this time — just a true story about a mushroom who bought a Steam account and got scammed.” “Here’s one I’ve seen: some new players buy a Steam account with a game they want — instead of buying the game itself. They don’t know account trading isn’t allowed, and they don’t check the original email. The seller can always reclaim it later. A few bucks saved, account gone in a week. Happens more often than you’d think.”
