Well, vBulletin isn’t exactly the safest message board around. As of last night, the Steam forums will be down for “maintenance” after a hacker group dubbing themselves as Fkn0wned managed to break into the forum, spam some emails, and posted an advertisement for their supposed website (seen above).
CVG however, reports that the website in question, Fkn0wned.com, denies any involvement at all.
We’ll keep you posted.

Yeah I may be pre-judging here, but I don’t think I’d trust a website with such a douchebag frat-boy level name.
Yeah, I am with you there. Also, they seem to be some sort of cheat/ hacking site according to the description posted there.
Perhaps some hacker from the boards decided to make the said boards famous. That’s all.
Update, pretty damn bad hack. http://i.imgur.com/EcEUJ.png
Now that’s bad…Steam always seemed like a security powerhouse. Something like this is very disheartening, but further proves that hackers can get into anything that they set they eyes on.
