The allegedly most expensive inventory of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive items have been hacked. The awful part? an estimated $2 million dollars worth of skins were stolen from the victim.
The unfortunate news came after @OhnePixel Twitter user, posted a tweet with all the details, mainly asking for help from the CS:GO or Steam social media teams, suggesting it wasn’t to late to do something.
$2,000,000+ in CS:GO skins have been hacked and stolen (some items getting moved/sold as we speak)

this is the most expensive inventory all-time, containing the most legendary items in CS:GO history (7x souvenir dragon lores, no-star karambit, #1 blue gems)

Sadly, half of the items got sold and the other half seem to be in the hacker’s steam account on trade hold. What is even sadder is that this collection included seven prized souvenir AWP Dragon Lore skins, no-star karambit and #1 blue gems.
Did Steam help after all?
Apparently, Steam support manually banned people who bought the stolen items to solve the issue. However, is not been confirmed if the items have been given back to their original owner yet.
Seems like Steam support is manually banning people (temporarily?) who bought the stolen items of HFB to solve this issue. Never thought I would witness something like that!

All of these guys just got banned: pic.twitter.com/M4ehVSuN9P
According to Dotesports, the victim’s Steam account was compromised last week, with hackers changing the account name and associated email without the owner noticing at first.
