Steam Problem: Persistent friend request from unknown

 
 

The content of this page is moderated by both Steam Support and the Steam user community - any links to outside sites should be treated with caution.

Steam Support will not request your Steam account password for any reason, nor will you ever be asked to enter your Steam account password into a website form.

This issue is most commonly caused by a group or event invitation being sent to a user who has not opted in on the Steam Community beta.

You can resolve this issue by changing your Steam Community Beta participation status.

To change your status:

  1. Go to the Steam File menu
  2. Select Settings
  3. Opt out of the Steam Community beta under the General tab
