AI GeneratedThe FBI is investigating malware-infected fake games on Steam from 2024 to 2026 and is seeking affected users to come forward. Games like Chemia, Dashverse, and BlockBasters have been identified as part of this scam, with BlockBasters even siphoning $32,000 in donations. These malicious games are often crypto scams that compromise user accounts and drain wallets. Despite Valve's efforts, these games continue to slip through the vetting system, leading to an increase in such incidents. Victims can provide information to the FBI voluntarily to aid in catching these criminals under federal law.
