  • This could do a lot of harm to Steam,they need to get ahead of this quickly.

    • Not really, Steam will refund the buyers, ban the seller, and keep the developer fee they paid. Scammers will be down $100 and everyone else will go on like nothing happened.

    • They're way ahead of you. They took care of it within an hour of it happening.

  • Escape from tarkov was also one I believe they have been removed. I'm not exactly sure how it's even possible though for games with names that already exist.

    • As someone else mentioned, there's literally new games coming out with the same title as older games, so that's not really an issue. The bigger issue is for a dev can just change their studio name and publisher name to match another? Because the orderly copied everything on the official Helldivers page.
