Strange Email from Steam

#1

I got a strange email from Steam with this as the email subject, Steam account - Query account by CD-key. I was wondering if anyone else got it.

you get that email, if anyone tries to use any key that you used to activate a game

Be sure to double check the sender address, and carefully inspect any links, in case it’s a phishing email pretending to be from Valve.

If it’s legitimate, then you need to inspect your security. Do NOT give out your order ID to anyone, or your Steam password.

Your emails from steam (if legitimate) will always start either.

Dear account login name

or

Hello profile name

if it just starts with “Hello” and no name or “Dear Customer” or anything like that, it’s fake as it gets.

Edit: hmm had to take off the arrow bracket things, apparently that made the info dissapear >.<
