Is store.communitysectionsgames.shop legit or a scam?
Steam Community phishing clone used in CS2 skin scams; confirmed by sandbox reports, Reddit discussions, and domain-pattern matching.

MT Intelligence
The domain store.communitysectionsgames.shop is a deliberate clone of steamcommunity.com, hosting fake workshop paths like /workshop/AK47-EternalDecay/ to trick users into entering Steam credentials. Kaspersky flagged it as phishing, and our sandbox analysis linked it to known malicious redirects. Reddit users in r/SteamScams confirm this exact domain is used in a widespread phishing campaign targeting CS2 players who receive fake workshop voting links. The domain has no legitimate business registration, contact information, or positive reviews — only scam reports and complaints. A nearly identical variant (store.communitysectionsgames.com) was flagged by independent review aggregators as low-trust and potentially fraudulent. The hosting IP 138.226.236.62 appears in infrastructure maps alongside other malicious domains, reinforcing the pattern.
