I thought it was clickbait and wasn't HFB's inventory. Kinda shocked he actually got hacked
happens to everyone
nice pfp
Yea that’s why his inventory is always private probably. Fear of hackers being losers

I would love to see an update on this whole situation soon, what a rollercoaster
Yes!

Did he ever post an update?
Lots of respect for buff refunding the buyers after this situation. i was expecting radio silence from all market places
I’ve never had an issue using Buff, it’s the first and only skin site I tried (no this is not an ad)
that happened?
@@voykot4134 yes they tweeted a couple hours after this all started
Yeah they gave themselves massive decent publicity there , great call
Imagine if that was the plan all along.
I wish Steam took other people's inventories this seriously.
Yeah for real. I had someone steal my account and I messaged steam support and they ended up saying it was my fault and that I sold the account which is against TOS, abut I didn’t. Steam just blocked the account and I lost 2k usd in skins
they dont care about the average joe that keeps their gambling machine going
It only matters because the fact that these skins were being held ransom in an inactive account will drive the market price up for related skins.
The exclusivity created by collectors and whales drives the price of all skins up. It just helps line Valve's pockets.
@@Baconator119 also there are an INSANE amount of 1 of 1 skins which would go extinct if valve didn't revert.
@@reflex5603 Yes but the fact that they sit on an account that has been inactive for 3 years with no signs of returning means that those 1-of-1 skins were already functionally extinct.
Whether they exist hidden away and never seen or used or are deleted makes no difference, because they are hidden from the market, potentially indefinitely.
considering the guy received ZERO emails, this only occurs when Steam Support changed the account details, was most likely social engineered thru a support ticket via an old hl1 cdkey or something
@asdfghjkzzz got the URL by any chance?
sim swap, did it via sms
@@Mp-jw1qg wouldnt surprise me
@@Mp-jw1qg that sounds easy to do, doesn't it?
The worst thing about this is the people bought the hacked skins for thousands then finding out they got deleted and they most likely will not get their money back whereas HFB still has a chance of getting his skins recovered
Buff refunded the buyers, but idk about the other sites
this is actually sad, hope everyone gets their money and he gets his skins
In Germany for example if you buy a stolen car the actual owner of the car gets it back and the person who bought it loses. This happens I wish they'd get compensated but it would be terrible if the inventory owner who got hacked gets nothing back.
It's a pity that valve does not help all who will be robbed, only popular youtubers, streamers or millionaires
Steam accepted responsibility due to them being socially engendered and returned his full inventory: ua-cam.com/video/-Fl6NUbfbUA/v-deo.html
Imagine being a guy on the russian site swiping some skins for insane deals and having the skins deleted from their inventory lol
If you read up on valves T.A.C valve basically own the rights to the skins. So that means valve can get away with taking the skins and returning them without having to refund the money they paid from the third party sites. I really hope he gets them all back.
**turns steam family view back on**
With Valve taking this inventory so seriously actually kinda sucks. A 1k knife for someone that had it stolen probably needed that money a lot more than this guy needs his couple million dollar worth of skins. I'm sure he has well over 100 million while someone with a 1k knife probably has 3k in their bank account.
I kind of agree on relative wealth point but if the guy with 3k in bank has 1k knife he is wrong in his head, should never be the case
@@xxi7052 I got 7.5k inv but 500 in the bank. I don't like banks they profit of us for doing nothing but you're right for the most part
@@xxi7052 haha true
@@snareplug3872 haha nice
I got hacked recently and something similar happened to me where I got no emails, no steam guard notifications, nothing. Luckily I recovered my account, but I'm still clueless on how it happened
Would love to see your reaction to the inventory when it first went public before we knew he was hacked
yesterday 2 mill, today 3 mill. Damn inflation hitting hard.
This can go one or two ways at this point. Either HFB starts caring about the game more with this scare or he just quits outright and when he gets his skins back he sells it all.
Its definitely a steam error, most likely valve messed up by not notifying the account holder about his account details changing, HFB probably has contacts at valve or contacted support that helped him flag the items that are used in transactions to be deleted or reverted. All while the hacker in the account is able to have listed these items without any repercussions and buyers lose their money and their skins they paid for. Valve seems to have contained the problem for now by reverting trades done through this account, with no possible way to trade there is no way to obtain any compensation from this point on. But it is unknown in total how many skins have been sold and how much money has been lost.
Steam must have considered something like this would happen eventually, and they would be prepared, and know how they would deal with it. Based on theit response so far, it seems like they have some plan in place.
Maybe I'm being too kind, but this is important for them not just for csgo, but any account with items worth a large sum of money from any game, as it is an example of how they will respond again in the future.
I got hacked and was left with dota 2 music kits and also no money for the cases that i sold
My theorie is that the Russian hackers sold the items to people they are connected with to cover up the history of transactions to the public or gamble and hope that the items will get duplicated to gain more profit. There is no way people with that knowledge about the steam marketplace undervalue these items that extremely. It could be possible that it was some kind of act against the collection of skins and they knew they would get deleted. So by selling they would let collectors spend a lot of money and make them lose that money on purpose. plus: I forgot about the community bans. It might be possible that the act went against Valve itself to make the community furious about getting banned and losing their money. This would also support the fact that the hackers unprivated his inventory to let the community see it. It is very possible in my opinion since this is a disaster for the CSGO skin community. This isn't something you will forget about csgo.
So weird seeing valve actually step in after so long, Heyzeus brought up a good point that it could mean they were to blame for the hack
its a major red flag for them
an account worth milions gets hacked.
causes chaos
@@AredioVaniits more likely that if valve were liable for the issue, that they would have to deal with it themselves, they usually never step in themselves
Imagine if valve delets the no star karambit and just gives a normal karambit back to hfb

@@prxarn6167 take off the tin foil hat bro
his email may have gotten to the bin instantly, my own account got hacked legit yesterday and the emails were in the bin automatically, maybe he got his email hacked as well like mine
He wasn't hacked, it was steam who made a mistake. Steam gave his account to "the hacker" because "the hacker" posed as the owner of the account and had steam do some type of recovery to change email, authenticator and password.
That is also the reason for them undoing the trades. Because steam is the reason he lost his inventory.
I kinda hope the people who put them in storage and managed to keep them just speak up and give them back or something. Otherwise we it’s just going to have to be hidden for the rest of eternity and we will 100% never see it again
i am crying from hearing this .... so sad :( hope all will be good GL HFB
lets be fair if u spend money on scammed accounts you shouldnt be surprised if the items disapear and you lose your money
If HFB managed to get his skins restored, it could potentially create a loophole for exploitation. Imagine a scenario where someone with a high-value account deliberately uses an alternate account to 'hack' their main account. They could then proceed to sell all the items from their main account on various websites. After making a profit from these sales, they might approach Steam or Valve, requesting the recovery of their skins. Essentially, they would be profiting from selling skins that they later get restored by Valve or Steam.
Used to happen all the time way back in the day, people got their friends to "hack" their accounts and then messaged steam support, steam support sent the items back to the owner but didn't delete from friends inventory causing a dupe of the exact float exact pattern skin. They no longer give any items back under any circumstances but I'm curious if they made an exception for him.
@@neb8768this is not true at all, they just make sure to remove the dupe skin. They return skins to the original owner.
All his skins might be back but I’m not sure. Valve seems to have delete the items from the buyers accounts, possibly returning them back to HFB.
my impression of ohnepixel over the years is ohnepixel2 short clips while he hangs out on only this one gas station skin changer map
This exact same situation last month happened to my wife. 12k inventory, dormant account for over two years. No emails, any type of notification, email and password change but mobile authentication still on. Steam originally blamed my wife for getting phished, but after some push back they admitted that a steam support responded to a recovery attempt with an email, an adress and her name(all easily googable). And handed over the account to the "hacker". Steam reverted all the trades and trade banned the middlemen in the trades but not the (in my opinion) "hacker" where all the skins led to.
They actually did a great job once they admitted it was their wrong doing. However, its been a while and i just noticed they duped two of the items, and other people still have the originals, so we'll be getting back in contact with them regarding that.
Did they recover your wife's items or make a copy of them? How things are going with you buddy?
@XMedian003X They duped them and then deleted from the inventory that they ended up in. I can still see two of her original skins in other users' inventory, so we are trying steam support again to have the item deleted or have the original item back.
I think having two items with the exact same pattern, float, and seed would potentially be worth a few bucks.
This is genuinely so fucking sad damn, I'm broke af constantly but for someone to lose something they spent so long, so much effort and money creating is devastating
Really not sad at all, the guy didn't log in for like 3 years, clearly didn't care too much about his inv.

@@rybye1261 Doesn't mean you hack someones profile ☠☠
i think it could be solved in future by giving everyone market sell ban and u can only sell the weapons with support key as the support is the middle man to trade the item
ty for covering this and explaining
steam should add an extra password for when trading items, or double confirmation... It can be annoying but it would fs prevent a lot of scams
There's now double confirmation needed when trading items
imagine these accounts got all created like 3 or 4 months ago and theres noway that they are random accounts he used this heist was planned so long ago how insane is it thinking about that
Another proof that hiding your inventory won't help and save you from hackers, so just open it up next time for everyone to watch
they sim swapped his phone 100%. thats the only way
Bro has 3 million dollars worth of pixels thats controlled by valve 💀
this has been the most craziest moments in csgo
There is never enough to protect yourself from malicious people. If they have the knowledge they will find a way.
i can relate to this. i just had my account hacked and my 3 worth while skins stolen so, I'm kind of just watching videos to prevent this and see what i can do. lost like $1000 worth of money i was going to use to upgrade my pc and setup.
That's so unlucky mate hope everything goes well in the future im also a little bit scared about "getting hacked"
i legit have only played cs twice but this channel is so entertaining love you ohne!
I once had like a 600 euro dollar inventory and got hacked via a false teamspeak update. All my items where sold almost instantly and I contacted steam and a few days later I had all my items back in my inventory. even the stat-track counter on my ST items where the same as before I got hacked, so I guess steam / valve did some kind roll back? if they could do that for me they should be able to do it for this guy?
I had the same thing with steam not telling me that my details had been changed
Finally man, i wait this video all day, great vid, pls more long videos :)
i had this problem too. getting hacked without email or steam guard notification
I have a feeling this will leave a huge dent in the market
all drama aside congrats on 100k dude!
17:00 one guy bought 6 of those skins in the picture, look at the pfp of the buyer that is banned. spent well over 200k.
I think steam support should have not made an exception here unless they from now on try to help out EVERYONE with a half decent inventory (2k+) in case they get hacked to get their items back. If they only help the biggest collector that is just really biased and unfair to all the ppl they have rejected in the past.
This is extremely saddening, as well as how valve NEEDS to step up and stop the CS:GO scamming community. I only ever opened 5 csgo cases in my time and pulled a 600$ knife #5 float Ursus Fade Fac New 282 pattern 0.002456 float and it got scammed sadly (this was about a year ago and I am still in the search to retrieve it back). Valve needs to get a grip and start aiding people who got scammed by creating a support page where you can revert trades due to scams etc.
Unlucky mate
@@fifa_snubben6960 ye bro.. i had 5 hours when it happened I quit, I came back a week ago and now have 175 hours, ive been having so much fun and been getting really good by the day. sadly miss the knife tho
how did you get scammed
@@Runic_Echoes New to csgo at the time had 20 hours, was only going to sell to a trusted trader, dude looked so legit (i was also new at the time), he eventually convinced me he was trusted, i had just woken up, sleepy mind etc, he promised crypto, i sent the item and he blocked/deleted me
Rip to all the people who bought skins off site and got them removed, tbh I don’t think steam will care, they have sayed multiple time not to trade off site
Bro you mean said not Sayed. Did the same mistake just wanted to let you know
And true they never recommended off site trades
If you go and use a site which actively disregard steam's TOS, then no, steam won't care.
@@Tubz40However if steam hands your account over to some random they will definitely do something or they getting sued
But how did the hacker do the trades when you have to accepts the trade in the steam app?
I can hear your voice in my head just saying
"Number 1 pattern, lowest float..."
*EVERYDAY* , I have no idea why
I'm a little late, but I think Valve should make a storage unit that you can set a password to. I would be a really safe method in my opinion
It’s hard to find the buyer so he sold it to a friend and then they sell it again but for more
Tldr. Rich guy got played, Traders bought stolen goods from an incompetent scammer, valve deleted the items and returned them.
I think the trading sites should just revert the cash transaction before paying out.
undid just means they sent the items back to the original owners inventory? not deleted? so the buyers loss their money
had same ,but hackers not just changed email ,but took down my mobile authorization ,and took my account ,but i got it back by steam support
steam support is notoriously easy to socially engineer, most likely what happened.
seems very unlikely for a inventory worth that much. Can you imagine how many people have tried? My theory is it’s someone he was close to or used to be close to irl since he’s not been on in 3 years.
8:15 sounds like the inside jobs that happen few weeks ago
imagine what would happen if the guys with lowest float karambit case hardened 387 would get hacked
I personally feel very sad for him, hope he will get his skins back (
He got them back from the sounds of it
@@smitty0 but does he have the account back?
this is like an art heist
You might want to check the new case that just dropped. Recoil Case looks lit
I usually lack any sympathy about stuff like this but i am really feeling my stomach turn even tho its a year old event.
hey, whats that server you play on to spawn other players skins?
My friend just got hacked as well a couple of days ago he didn't get a email or anything luckily he only has like 1004 in skins in that account but still that is very weird
i mean all they really have to do is flag the skin IDs last owned by the player and just give them back to the account.
what if the no star karambit gets returned without the star?, and i personally since he didnt need the 2step verification i think this was some1 on steam support aka like a inside job. or could this possibly be a new way the got like around the 2step if possible?
This hacker is having the time of his life rn
Ohne just a question when u check someone’s inventory there is a price on steam how do u get that
he has a chrome extnesion, i think the floatdb one
go in his twitch chat and type !extensions
You are on the finnish Newspaper IltaSanomat, and they call you a CSGO-expert 😂
I'm surprised that Valve doesn't just ban all 3rd party websites and then remove the trade price cap on the steam market.
It would kill the market and just lead to MORE scams in the long run, because naturally people with a 100k skin don't want 100k steam credit for it, they would rather take a -10% cut for insurance by a website and cash out for real money.
Ive previously been hacked before not on steam but other stuff and how i got hacked is they managed to get into my email account and from there they had gone through and deleted any emails about my password and email being changed etc so that i would not find out about it
I am a bit confused tho. If HFB still has his authenticator app linked. How could the trades be made. I remember at least with trading my knives I always had to accept on my authenticator.
what probably happened is that the account was socially engineered with steam support, steam support somehow believed that the scammer forgot his password, and when that happens, they remove the steam authenticator, remove the phone number, they change the email and they send the new password in an email to the new email. when this happens, the old authenticator can still 'look like it's activate, but it definitely isn't.
@@tarcseh what do you mean with "socially engineered with steam support"? Would be really happy about an answer :)
@@gutmood147 this simply means that they lied to steam support, but in a way, that made steam support believe that THEY were indeed the real owner of the account.
@@tarcseh Oh okay, thanks. That was a really quick answer 🙂
@@tarcseh Yep SE was definitely the cause, there's no other way to hack his account unless it was SE
got €10k value inventory, but no way in hell would I or any bloke would get this treatment from steam
Yea, this is what scares me about buying a inventory which is worth a few k again..
Once a long time ago in csgo i traded my knife to my friend and something happend so none of us got the knife so i wrote to steam support and some days later i had 2 of the exact same knife in my inventory i dont know if they meant to do that or if something else happend
This is absolutely insane
I have a question bro, how much overpay is worth for decent titan katto non holo?
my account got hacked and i lost all my skins luckely i did not have that expensive skins but it still sucks its not like i can just get those back :/
i bet he installed some extension that got the session token from steam, with that you can login onto the account without any password or 2fa
would it be possible that the skins are all deleted and all of the money that was spend from the buyers is given back to there acc´s?
Sad times the 2 million inv gone holy
Thank you for this video been waiting for a long video explaining it all
I recently got scammed of my knife too :( I'm very sad rn thinking about it. it was a m9 bayonet, safari mesh 356.95 sgd
I'm one of the buyers.Steam deleted the items and banned my account without noticing me. I am very angry with it.Maybe steam thought that I'm with the hacker.But shouldn't they give me some reason before ban my account??
You should contact the site you bought from and if they don't refund make a lawsuit. You got plenty proof that you bought it and that they removed it
me with the 0,03$ berettas skin*
ah so theres somebody with an account more expensive than mine
what if someone gets his money returned from buff and the item that he bought gets returned to him from steam support (duped)
3 mil lost? He’s like an Arab prince or smth , he literally has more money than you can imagine
its not about money😹
@@djwbiebficnejd7386 but it is, they wouldn’t help him if their wasn’t this much value. $3m to this guy is like nothing. It would be like an average income earner with a $500 inventory and steam wouldn’t care
I got hacked same way and they sold my expensive items on thr market for few cents and i did not get any notifications from my e-mail that someone logged in. Also they can't know my steam guard access and they still got in. And I also did not use steam for a year so i don't know how they did it.
Please tell me how much my Skelton Key Crimson Web is Please please please. It has a full web near the tip centered on the side you see when you hold it.
Thanks for the gifted sub on furi stream ,much apreciated!!!!
The skins traded via BUFF are refunded
Hackers threw. They could've kept the profile private and no one would've known
need to ask if ya account got hack how ya get ya items back now ocos my account got hacked even with the 2 authentication on and that didn't even stop these hackers getting in
RIP, hope he can get his account back
Well more like his skins
@@tatu301 nah, any other normal person wouldnt, neither should he, valve should stay consistent
@@CalzaRage yeah I want by bfk bac
@@CalzaRage Everyone can have their opinion about the thing, dont understand your way of thinking but okay. Hopefully someone loses most valuable inventory in steam because everyone dont get their shit back.
@@tatu301 I'd rather the piece of shit with tens of millions to his name loses money than a load of innocent traders losing money. As is, he's gonna get his shit back and everyone who bought any of the items, even if they had no idea (like ohne even said, he was looking to buy something having no idea it's a hack) will just lose their money for no gain. We're not talking some extremely rich multimillionaire losing some money worth of skins, we're talking potentially fairly poor people investing 10k that they barely have to get an item they can get something out of, and they lose all that money for nothing.
But sure I guess if you want the rich guy to get a percent of his wealth back that's cool too.
When i logged into my Alt Steam Account after ~4 year with no activity i changed the password, I had to wait 30 Days to trade my Items
This was just all a ploy by steam to get rid of the no star karambit.
