In den letzten Monaten wurden mehrere Steam-Spiele wie „BlockBlasters“ und „Chemia“ entfernt, nachdem bekannt wurde, dass Cyberkriminelle Malware eingeschleust hatten, um Krypto-Wallets und Browserdaten zu stehlen. Ein bekannter Streamer verlor dabei 30.000 US-Dollar aus seinem Krebs-Spendenfonds, direkt während einer Live-Übertragung, da das Spiel einen Infostealer und Cryptodrainer enthielt. Die Schadsoftware wie Vidar Stealer und Fickle Stealer konnte Passwortdaten und Kryptowährungen entwenden, während die Opfer nichts bemerkten. Experten kritisieren, dass die Kontrollmechanismen von Steam solche manipulativen Spiele wochenlang unbemerkt zulassen.
