So...
My buddy's son's steam account was hacked about a month ago and it took this long for it to get recovered through contacting steam and verifying credit cards and purchased histories and what not. When he got the account back was surprised to notice none of his son's inventory items were removed and the hacker hadn't played any games or did anything except on the day of the hacking made a $470 bank deposit into his son's steam wallet.
He of course told steam about the extra funds and this kind of baffled us both. I thought maybe the guy made the deposit so that he could try and recover it in the future saying he made a deposit into the account but even that seems far fetched.
Is anyone versed in the hacking nature of steam accounts and could maybe shed some light as why someone would deposit that much money into an account that they stole?
