If you're a Steam user, you've likely heard rumors about a massive data breach affecting users. The news of compromised accounts and stolen information quickly spread, causing concern among gamers. Many rushed to secure their accounts, fearing the worst, until, allegedly, Valve stepped in and debunked the entire breach narrative.
The rumors started circulating after a LinkedIn post from Underdark suggested that data from 2FA SMS logs via Twilio, a digital service provider, had been leaked, with claims that 89 million user records were compromised. But this seems to have been proven false. Users on Twitter/X pointed out that Valve clarified it does not use Twilio for its 2FA services, debunking the speculation. We've contacted Valve for an official statement but have not yet received a response.
