Kotaku have an article up http://kotaku.com/58...edit-card-theft
Also if you log into Steam it will bring up a message detailing what happened, just to be on the safe side I've changed my password, hopefully this is only a minor attack.

I've changed my password just in case. Luckily my card expired last month and I havent added the new one so hopefully i'll be ok.

nah, probably coincidence then just... they guy didnt seem like a professional, left a ridiculous paper trail for the police... lucky thing too as it was his debit card that was cloned, they dont offer the same theft security as a credit card.
