Valve adds “Suspicious Chat Warning” to the latest Steam Friends and Chat feature. When a user receives a potentially malicious message, the chat window will display the alarm and temporarily disable the link in the message, and the user will need to confirm the warning before clicking. This function is designed to prevent fraudulent friends or malicious account numbers from transmitting fishing links.

Currently available only in Steam User Beta version, which can be enabled by a player using the “Set > interface > user test”. Valve has not yet published the determination process, but the Beta version will be an important stage in the information collection and adjustment function.

Even if there is a warning function, the player should remain vigilant and avoid clicking on an unknown link, suggesting that security measures such as placing a mobile phone number to verify entry or using Steam Mobile App to quickly log into the Steam account and be notified when trading or selling the item.

Amendments to this update synchronise other test functions, including the installation of part of the game ‘s Steam Play setting error, the correction of the problem of the Bluetooth device’s inability to match, the remote and the musician input of the game setting to save by the game, and the correction of the time-axis tag for the video recording.

Steam officials have indicated that the aforementioned “Suspicious Message Warning” feature will be officially online in the standard version in the future, providing greater protection for players.
