Steam Hacked (11 Comments) (link)
 Sunday, 13-November-2011  13:58:01 (GMT +10) - by Agg

Gabe Newell has advised that the Steam Forums have been hacked, and more importantly, the Steam database has been compromised. We do not have evidence that encrypted credit card numbers or personally identifying information were taken by the intruders, or that the protection on credit card numbers or passwords was cracked. We are still investigating. We don’t have evidence of credit card misuse at this time. Nonetheless you should watch your credit card activity and statements closely.

More info here, here and here, with discussion here.
