Um, yeah, I just noticed that the language seems to have changed to Russian on some pages and French on others. What to do about this? Go to bed and hope it's all sorted out by itself in the morning? Yes I think maybe I'll do that.

Yeep just saw it on Twitter. Tried to log in to change my CC info and email but surprise it shows info for another user so I cant do that.
Holy shit fuckup. Merry Christmas indeed.
EDIT: This being XMas is almost too much of a coincidence. Deliberate hack attempt perhaps?

Yeah just tried to log on to delete my saved card details and I have someone else's saved card details. This is a bit concerning to say the least!

Blocking your stored credit card seems sensible. Paypal is less of a hassle, since you can just go to the paypal page and remove steam from preapproved payments in your profile.

I'm glad I have no saved money details, having always made sure to untick the "remember" box no matter how many times Steam defaults to it being ticked.
I guess someone can theoretically use up my €4.49 of Steam Wallet, but I basically got that from selling free junk anyway, so its loss wouldn't bother me that much.

It's ridiculous, considering the scale of this, they should immediately shut down everything until it's resolved.

@Wario64 You're laughing now, but you won't be laughing once you find out someone actually made it bigger by buying more games.
