Don't enter your info.
Your in the clear, it's a phishing scam. Your Steam stores Credit information(for some) and you'd be fucked if you lost that.
Check the website for yourself. All the Links direct you to the actual Steam website, not the fake facade this group has up.
If you've already used their link and submitted information contact Steam Support ASAP and change your password and personal information.
It's good to contact Steam Support anyway and inform them of the scam

Sobald Ihr Dampfkonto VAC verboten ist, können Sie ihn nicht erhalten entfernt.

Because a forum post should be like a woman's skirt. Long enough to cover the subject material, but short enough to keep things interesting.

If your using bots/hacks on steam you know a vac ban is coming 2. You can still use steam and non-vac servers

Not only Valve but pretty much any company/website that you registered to wouldn't need your account information, I mean they already have it.
Also complaints is not what gets you banned on steam. They have VAC anti cheat software and other stuff so once you use hacks ingame on a secure server you'll get banned.
