webfact Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 By Panithan Onthaworn Online gaming giant Valve Corporations said on Friday that its online gaming distribution channel Steam will begin collecting a 7-per-cent tax on Thai gamers starting from October 15 following the government’s guidance to ease the public debt burden. Valve stated on its website that Thailand will be added to a list of countries from which tax will be collected. Other South-East Asian countries on the list include Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia. The gamer group Sheapgamer said that other platforms that accept Thai currency, such as Origin, also announced plans to collect the tax.

tonray Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 GF just found 10K+ charges on her account from Steam. Looks like someone trying a scam. Did a Google search, apparently a global problem of non authorized charges from Steamgames. Hopefully the bank will reverse and put the money back into her account. She says she has never signed up or used any Steam game stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyGoLuckyLife Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 What happened to the government wanting to support gamers more? So what you're saying is to buy all my Steam games before moving. Like seriously, video games cost enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henryford Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 My UK credit card was recently hacked into with multiple charges for "Steam Games". Luckily the bank refunded me the charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
