How I Robbed The 2024 Steam Summer Sale - Steam Is Perfectly Balanced With NO EXPLOITS...

- Wow another steam summer sale has arrived! Steam Summer sale 2024 is here and it is full of amazing discounts on amazing games like skyrim Standard edition, skiyrm Enhanced or even skyrim Anniversary. But today we will be showcasing an ongoing steam exploit that allows users of google chrome to inject items into their steam cart using a bug in paypal to gain access to unlisted and hidden items on steam. This makes it possible to add games that have been removed from steam or even get some old csgo rewards added to your account that you can then sell for real money. Or you could spend the money you gain on buying more banana game steam items for no reason.
This is of course very bad and definitely should not be allowed so yeah valve please fix! A Special thanks to @PirateSoftware and his team for making me aware of the expanded implications this has with paypal and to maplesyrupghost for providing evidence of the widescale use of this exploit on steam. Now whilst you can use this exploit to absolutely rob the steam summer sale and potentially steal all of the rewards for basically nothing using subid shenanigans I think this is a bad idea! Instead in the steam summer sale 2024 go buy yourself a fun and silly game like brotato or crab champions and enjoy hundreds of ours of indie game bargain fun!
details on paypal exploit that is as of 04/07/2024 still not fixed

Dear Gaben I am sorry.
Dear Paypal plz fix.
Dear viewers watching on 0.25x speed not only makes me sound drunk it also quadruples the watch time in the youtube algoritm.
Edit: Praise be gaben steam is fixed. I am unsure about PayPal but will update this comment if I hear any news!
Time to conquer the Steam Market and rebuild the Glorious British Empire!
Thank you for giving us all free games with this exploit lmao
Pay the man
oh ma days
My favourite spiff videos are his grafting for a small amount of money vids. I'm not sure why I just love them
Next video: jail is perfectly balanced
@@The_Real_Dream_Chaser that is possible.
Break law to make money after multiple rather convulted steps.
Make someone "clean" the money.
Do jail once.
Do it again but you can pay the fees directly with previous money (that was trhoughly lost trace off thanks to mondialisation).
Scale the thing because you are innnocent until proven guilty
"Jail Glitch, jailbreaking an actual jail"
What do you mean? From prisoner to warden where in the end he becomes the next primeminister of England?... That would be sick tho, not gonna lie
I doubt a jail could hold him for long, he's too sneaky.... it seems tea gives him all these super powers that normal men don't have.
@@webbie7503 lol
You know this exploit is overpowered when even the Spiffing Brit has to put a disclaimer
If even a God gets nervous about something he's done dozens of times...
Or just plain illegal
Forget the disclaimer, he offered his TEA. This is a serious issue.
He has to put the disclaimer because he know people are stupid enough to still go through with it. You do not mess with fraud, at least in the US. Fraud is a big deal because it usually leaves a trail so it's pretty easy track down the account. And for liability reasons banks and payment processing will absolutely give that account up. Not to mention the potential damages they will absolutely use that person as an example.
@@allstarwoo4 I imagine the people doing this for real severely underestimate the potential consequences there. Historically, fraudsters often receive a length of incarceration that makes child abuse sentencing look like a brief stint. Better yet, the companies you defrauded can still file civil suits on you beyond whatever criminal charges the state/fed pressed, so you might do 15 years just to get out and have any money you make heavily garnished for the rest of your life.
"GabeN, Spiff has released another exploit video"
'How bad?'
"Real bad"
THE bad
Legal disclaimer bad.
Lol
Nice comment you copied there, bot.
gabe watching this in real time: oh thank god its paypals fault.
Spiff: "This Should Not Be Reproduced"
Also Spiff 3 Seconds Later: "So Here Is What We Are Going To Do"
There's a point where publicity of a problem is more likely to get the lazy ass devs at PayPal off their 6 digit salary asses and fix issues than just a simple bug report
that also happens with people who promote hacking clients
for games and then say "dont do this" but also put 20 links in

@@4547466 This is pretty much entirely an exploit on the Steam side, PayPal is just processing a (for the first example) 71 pence transaction as requested by Steam.
@@4547466I'm not convinced this is a PayPal bug, this very much seems to be a flaw in how shopping carts are implemented on websites, and I don't see any reason this would only apply to PayPal given the commands are being run on the shop page rather than the PayPal page
@@4547466 Yea, let's hope they quickly click that "fix bugs" button a couple times.

How has Spiff graduated from exploits to just plain fraud
I mean the shtick has always been capitalism, it's not his fault capitalism is just scams now.
Realistically, fraud is just a real life exploit.
He's been wearing a black hat the whole time 🤠🧐
We live in a simulation.
@@nuance9000 Not the little hat, though.
How you force companies to fix issues: make millions of people aware of the exploit. Suddenly, it's no longer a "fixing it costs us $100,000, but just dealing with a minor amount of customer service tickets costs us nothing" situation, suddenly it's a "we have two thousand people doing the exploits every minute now, CS is overworked, and companies are threatening to sue, this is gonna cost us millions if we don't fix it."
And that's why some software engineers at Valve and PayPal are now working closely together and won't stop working until they solves these issues, getting themselves a negative mark on their records for having this expensive bug in the first place, and seeing their bosses get a higher bonus for making the right choices in a stressful situation.
BY CLOSING HIS PAYPAL ACCOUNT THATS NOT RIGHT.

4:12 honestly full delisted games should be permanently free after a while for the sake of game preservation
games' copyright does expire eventually, but that doesn't give steam a mandate to distribute them. I wonder what we will see when the copyright of landmark videogames expires.
@@AleAsLison Copyright in the US generally lasts 70 years after the death of the author, so most of us here will not be alive to find out.
That's not how... any of this works for so many common sense and legal reasons.
I dunno about that chief. Legal issues aside, they still have to pay for the bandwidth on that.
@@AleAsLisonAbandonware is generally free to distribute. It's a bit legally grey, but failure to enforce copyright or trademarks is what leads to the loss of those protections.

thank you so much for speaking on this issue spiff, im a small streamer that got completely demoralized by paypal's terrible system, and knowing big eyes are watching what they do is definitely a huge boost towards a resolution. Ive been here since like the early 900k subs era, and am super proud of how far youve come in recent years! Hope we continue to enjoy our tea and find LEGAL AND DEFINITELY NOT INHUMAN exploits!
Honestly the only solution I see to that is for every platform to stop accepting PayPal as a valid payment method, because people have been running that kind of scams with it for years. I see no reason to think they'll ever have any intention of fixing it.

Well there's a lot of private developer builds of games that should never be purchasable, might have no DRM on them and lead to widespread piracy of those games as a result of the exploit. Developer builds might also have access to tools that could be usable online on the main game to cheat like what happened when they accidentally leaked the dark souls developer build.

What makes me laugh is that if you had used the hell out if this exploit and been community banned until 2040 (only 16 years from now) by the time you get it back your sellable items might be worth hundreds of thousands at which point you could simply sell the account.
Either Valve has something planned for 2040 or they're not expecting you to live that long.
... possibly it's not an OR but an AND situation.
if Steam hadn't deleted them from your inventory during that time, that is
It's trackable and they will delete your items

Bravo Spiff 😉
When a game is delisted it's still available to people who obtained the game beforehand. It's very rare that a game gets actually removed from Steam altogether.
@@LutraLovegood Ah I see. Okay. But SO many games have been lost to time (not really talking MMORPGs here) that they aren't really available unless you get a specific console or some such emulator. It's a shame how much art has been lost to greed 😕
@@sywrexile3078 well...
everything that once upon a time was sold to us is being preserved, just gotta run through hoops like anti-piracy laws (be it roms that can either be used by emulators or the actual console if burned to a disc/cartridge properly like you said or.. you know... the PC version of it. hell, we even preserve games that we shouldn't preserve as we never got around to ever own a license for them, like Far Cry 3, which instead should be one of the many games that shouldn't have "sold" and make that method of "business" a non-viable business).
delisted games can still be downloaded, they just cant be purchased anymore
@@scratthesquirrel5242 yeah, and guess what, most delisted games are not owned by a majority of the people.
That is some insane stuff. Thank you, Spiff!
That paypal bug might be misuse of an intentional feature (if so, maybe don't expect a bugfix).
Reason: It allows items to be added to the cart without user interaction mid payment flow, usually used for things like shipping for heavy items that's calculated based on the address (which may not be available until paypal has the cart).
Source: I've been a dev on several payment systems (not paypal though, so take my opinion with a pinch of salt) and been in meetings where things that sure look like exploits to me have been proposed as features.
But why would such a feature be exposed to the client? What's the need here?
I wouldn't want to presume about the details, but it's got to be accessible to the js in the consuming page if you don't want to deal with storing jwts and such in the backend. No matter how you approach that then it's always going to be accessible in the console somehow even if you obfuscate and minify it
The mental calculus between "steam might consider it fraud" and "Dark Souls PtDE is unlisted anyways and I really want it" is taxing
Same, I only want rocket league on steam...
@@JosephFaulkner2k8 Rocket League isn't on Steam anymore??
@@LutraLovegood nope, it's now an epic games exclusive
Maybe try getting it on a burner account, if it doesn't get banned in a few weeks trade it over?

Been waiting for this Spiff. Thanks!
It professional here: checking this is absolut basic security. I have literally no idea how they missed this. Either once you are in the payment process your cart becomes frozen, or - if new items are added - becomes invalid. However under no circumstances must the client system be allowed to dictate any of this ever. Because Everything that runs in the browser is completely open source and can be hacked by anyone with even basic programming skills.
i like big latinas too
They missed this because their focus isn't on the product as it should be.
Games are constantly broken and it's just bad code written by coders. How are any other programs any different?
"We need you Gaben, now more than ever."
I expect quid pro quo on my energy contribution.
I stumbled in to the sticker trick by hoarding some of the first round of team stickers and boy did that feel pretty great when I finally unloaded them. I'm 90% sure there's money laundering going on with the stickers but 300% return on my initial investment was fucking awesome. I'm proud to be even accidentally tangentially as clever as you.
That is the reason, why standard api got very unsafe. In the IT universities they say "you need to make an api, where you can say which id is need to create/update/delete depends on the id". Yep when you know that id you can easily get unrechable things, bc there is no difference between wanted and unwanted content
Every time I watch a video like this I wish I didn’t have a moral core that prohibits me from doing these exploits. I’m glad Spiff is here to document them for me and remind everyone how illegal some of them are. ❤
For real though: your ability to crack the Steam sales is amazing.

That bug is a big part of why I set up donations via patreon instead of paypal. I didn't want to open up monetary attack avenues, and paypal has a long history of this sort of thing.
I find it astonishing that no one is still taking the time to modify some lines of code in this attack, as it has a striking resemblance to packet editing in online video games.
you KNOW it's a spicy exploit when there's a disclaimer in a Spiffing Brit video
Anyone who does this is going to get absolutely FUUUUUUUUCKED and will lose their accounts. Don't try at home kids lol.
Is that just for the stuff like the cs items? Or just getting old things that dont exist anymore
Paypal has had the chargeback expoit for years now. I've had to close my server due to having to return 2000 or so euros for "products" that people didn't receive. Worst thing is, as long as there exists a record of the transaction they can do that for 180 days to you. And if you complain to paypal they always side with the customer, regardless of proof.
ohh noo, you mean the company which had a bad rep from the start and then sided with the us gov against wikileaks and stopped processing wikileaks donations, when wikileaks published the warcrimes of america, you mean this company is somewhat shady or untrustworthy?
I am shocked!
Not to say that paypal was always a place of fraud, especially with the family and friends stuff...
Yup, when he mentioned it I was like "Wait.. they STILL haven't fixed this yet!?" it's been around and known for at least six years.
yea chargebacks are an interesting thing they are needed for customers but also can be abused like I was renting a rust server and the server didn't work shockbyte the host tried to claim that I was "past the refund" and refused to work so I told them I would chargeback them and magically it was fixed less then an hour later
also avoid shockbyte they are NOT good
@@admiralkaede Absolutely, I'm a big fan of consumer protections like that and they can be very strong even as just a threat like it was for you, but I will warn anyone reading that you should always try to work with the vendor first because if you go straight to a chargeback there are some companies that will blacklist your payment method on the assumption that the initial charge is being reversed because it was fraudulent and your payment method is compromised. (At least, that's the stated reason. They might just figure that someone who does a chargeback once is more likely to do it again. Who knows!) If you never want to trust them with your money again that's all fine, but if it's just a once off it can be a major hassle until you get a new credit card/payment account.
eveyone else: IM going to use this to make money
Me: I want to use this to get every removed game on steam.
You know it's serious when Spiff has to include an actual disclaimer forewarning legal consequences at the top of the video.

I think I'd have probably been tempted to risk it for a biscuit and grab a couple of cheeky unlisted games I've been lamenting missing out on for years if that was the only part of this exploit... But with the Market exploits going on too, punishments are going to end up being a lot harsher than they probably would have been otherwise, and I don't think it's worth the risk of getting caught in the collateral.
damn, I really want rocket league in steam but I have to use the epic games store. was wondering to use this exploit to get myself rocket league :/

I just wanted to get LoL on my account :c rip
We’re all on the same page… Yeah, it’s disappointing we can’t get delisted formerly free games, I would’ve made a second account just to do that.
But with the internet being what it is, and all my emails being linked to one another (in one way or another), it’s not worth the risk, since it’s being misused.
would have liked to get Deadpool and Age of Booty. Not worth the risk though.

Geez spiff this was the feel good video I wasn't expecting! Love the stance on preserving gaming history. Also love the awareness out there to help steam and help the community. A better steam can better care for the community, and vice versa!
Wow, I've never seen Spiff so serious before.
Damn shoulda had notifications on for this one
There's another layer to this you didn't mention in the video, luckily because Steam just put a bandaid fix that would prevent this from being possible, game developers tend to have packages containing every game they ever released as a private SubID for developers in the company which can be publicly read through SteamDB. If that were added to your cart you would have permanent access to every game published by the large company you took from whether it was Capcom, Ubisoft, WB Games, or any other company that has these packages.

It’s been exactly four years since I subscribed to the channel and my god this exploit right here may be one of the greatest and, at the same time, worst exploits you’ve presented so far!
Planning on going to sleep right about now. Thanks for your nice soothing voice
You know it's gonna be a great exploit if Spiff has to give a full legal disclaimer at the start 😂
Edit: Genuine question, if you use this exploit to just get a delisted game into your account, and not make any money off it, will steam come after you? The game in question has been delisted for over five years and there is no way to get a copy of it in 2024
ehh, other people said that they will probably just remove it. Honestly I dunno, you could try it but I would rather just pirate
I don't think it's worth the risk.
You're sure you can't get it by sailing the high seas?
looks like its already fixed so it doesnt matter anyway, really wanted gta 1 but oh well
It'd be legally safer to just pirate the game.
@@unusualusername8847 yeah I've realized that. The pirated copy is pretty broken and doesn't include certain content the Steam version would, but it's not worth the risk.
Oh, I did have a good chuckle when you asked Paypal of all things to fix something. Oh boy is that man politely talks to clouds.
Spiff gives PayPal a free cup of tea but a glitch is immediately explored and Spiff loses access to tea for life.
0:43 We need you Gaben, TF2 needs your exploit to fix the bot crisis
Didnt the fix already start tho
Go check out delfy, they've been ban waving hundreds of bots and their hosters.
What's TF2? Team Fortress or Titanfall?
@@leodf1titanfall is TF-2
@@GentleWruzzPuppet @electr0cute170 The ban waves are most probably because the summer update is around the corner and they want TF2's image to be clean for that date and to get people to spend their money on lootboxes, I ain't falling for that shit if I'm right
this is the first time that i actually made it to one your videos and not days after it got patched, how perfectly balanced 😄
How do you know it is not patched, yet? ;)
Man really said: "Now what I'm about to say would be illegal if I endorsed it, but I don't and I'm simply "describing" the exploit"
Hopefully Gabe Newell doesn't mind people getting free games
I fear what this man does in his free time does he just sit there like "how I ran into a wall exploiting atoms to teleport"
my first instinct is getting delisted deadpool :D but my account has a lot of games, so not risking it
same here
I just tried to get Deadpool :( but it didn't work
War in the North 😢
oh yea i remember that game why was it delisted?
@@admiralkaede Copyright... it's always about copyright, sadly...
ive been training in cyber security and this is literally one of the things i did in the virtual environment except it was a donut shop??? like this is a known exploit!
Man it's fixed... all I wanted to do was to get rocket league on steam...
You know it’s a big video when spiff has to have a long disclaimer at the start of the video
PayPal's had this exploit, as well as similar issues, for years. Artists, small businesses, and anyone who does commissioned and custom work have had people do this- and similar false 'scam/defective' reports- to avoid paying and/or intentionally harm the seller financially. It's dangerous and hasnt been fixed, even though I started hearing about it in like...2015-16? PayPal is absolute garbage.
PAYPAL: “how will we get that free cup of tea”
SPIFF: “let’s make a video about sharing a cup of tea”
My favourite time of year, Steam exploitation
Watching the video, pretty good.
Watching the video on 0.25 with sound muted, priceless.
YOU KNOW ITS A GOOD SPIFF VID WHEN THE LAWYERS GET INVOLVED
You know its serious when a long disclaimer has to be read before the video
