Fake email claims Steam is giving Far Cry 2 away for free

farcry2a

Joystiq and a few others received a faux email earlier in the day saying Valve was giving them Far Cry 2 for free.

The email address appears to originate from Steam and the link looks legitimate, but it goes to a third-party site where heaven only knows what sort of nasty thing will download onto your system.

If you are one of the recipients of this email, don't fall for it.

More over on Joystiq, and you can view the offending email flier here.
