Europe [EU] ⚠️Scam Warning: Fake FACEIT Link Used for Malware “Bot Protection” Trap

13 Upvotes

I made a post here yesterday where we were looking for a lurker. The same day, a person contacted me. At first everything seemed normal, and he described himself as a player with experience and sent a link that looked like his FACEIT profile.

As soon as I clicked the link, I became suspicious. Normally when someone shares a FACEIT profile, a preview with an image and information appears – but that did not happen here.

After that, I made this analysis:

The first page looks like a legitimate Cloudflare security check (commonly used by real websites to block bots and suspicious traffic).

○ Then a popup appears: “BOT PROTECTION – Human Verification Required”, which asks you to:

  1. Press Win + R (opens Windows Run dialog)
  2. Paste something using Ctrl + V
  3. Press Enter

○ Legitimate websites (including FACEIT) will never ask you to open Win+R or run commands on your computer.

○ This is a well-known scam method where attackers try to trick users into executing malicious code locally.

○ If you follow these steps, it can lead to malware, account hijacking (Steam / FACEIT), or full system compromise.

Immediate Advice

○ Do NOT follow the instructions on this page. Do not paste or run anything prompted by suspicious popups.

○ Close the page immediately.

○ If you have already pasted and run any content, your computer may be compromised. You should:

○ Run a full security scan

○ Change your Steam, Faceit, and email passwords from a separate, uncompromised device.

○ Enable two-factor authentication (where possible).

○ Monitor for suspicious activity on your accounts.

His profile always shows as offline. When he adds you, he describes himself as a player and sends a link that looks like his FACEIT profile, and then he disappears.

LFP | NA West | FACEIT Level 8+ Main AWPer | Long-term "Go-Pro" Grind

• Age Preference: 17–22 preferred

• Core Rank: FACEIT Level 8-10 (Playing regularly in high Elo NA West/Central lobbies)

• Role Needed: Main AWPer

• Schedule: Flexible afternoons/late nights (Grinding heavily whenever the squad is all online)

The Vision:

We aren’t just looking for a plug-and-play sniper to fill a slot for a single season. We are trying to find a long-term teammate, a close friend, and a dedicated grinding partner. The goal here is essentially to go pro—to put in the hours, build unbeatable chemistry, level up as a unit, and see how far we can take this game in the NA scene.

What We Want in Our AWPer:

• Skill & Potential: FACEIT Level 8 minimum, but with the mechanical skill ceiling and desire to comfortably hold your own against Level 10 and top 1000 players.

• Mindset: You treat practice seriously, look at mistakes constructively, and don't let an ego get in the way of improvement.

• The Vibe: You want a group where you can grind out hours, have a ton of fun doing it, and genuinely become great friends along the way.

If you are a cracked West Coast sniper who fits this age group, is down to hit the ground running whenever the full squad gets online, and wants to build something real with a dedicated core, DM me your FACEIT/Steam profile and let's run some trials! https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199387271600/

What's up my guys hope youre having a great day and that this post finds you well....

Lets talk man if youre from la contact me I have a discord but im not posting link... I wanna have fun I play seriously at all times but I crave action so if you hold shift 90% of the time prepare to be shit talked. I will train though so if you need guidance let me know or if you wanna see whos better let me know bro I'm down to meet at lan centers but im not moving my baby.

As for my experience I'm experienced with competitions and even won one up in washington when i was in bootcamp. I was really really bored and just went there to obliterate the kids. I remember this older guy looked like he was 40 like I am now... He just FRAGGED on quake I'm the same way now I frag I maintain optimal game sense I cover my team mates I am aware of my team mates movements and possible thoughts slash future movements. I have no clout no elo no nothing all I do is play to unwind when I get bored of making music. I play only one match at a time most of the time due to the stress of playing with random noobs all of the time. I have never been part of a team in csgo or cs2 only 1.5 and 1.6 oh and css bro... after that my hit reg would never work ive litterly wiffed millions of shots it feels like screamed and argued way more than I would have liked to. I know my limits and try to play muted sometimes when Im feeling stressed so if i turn off vc sometimes i will tell you but thats only during competitive or premier you gotta ask yourself would you rather me frag or yap. lol

I dream of a team thats like me to swoop me up man i love playing cool fps i will play other games that are fps i dont play ANYTHING only fps and its been that way for many years as I want to be as good as I can be.

One thing you might notice is I tend to look like im cheating sometimes when they turn on my reg but yeah I dont practice recoil patterns much and could tell you exactly which way the Galil pulls because I forget cause its so lame of a thing to remember.. But yeah I preffer to practice in warm up the guns on the wall and may do it at round start if im feeling really unsure but I dont like giving what gun I have away so tend to not do it.

Hi i am 23 and i have 8k hours in cs between two accounts and 5 years of eSports background, where at the best I played under well known semipro teams/orgs in Finland.

I am super motivated and friendly and cheerful towards my teammates and hardworking toward my team's success.

The best roles to suit me are in order. lurker, awp, support

The role can be decided according to the other players in the team and what they need.

I can train 5-7 days a week like if I need to go somewhere and it can't be rescheduled to not overlap the practice then it's ok for the team that there is no practice that day / they train their own stuff.

i played faceit with my old friends back in the days and i got deranked too many times and im currently faceit lvl 4 but i can perform versus higher level
