Hey guys,many of you are frustrated with Steam's rule of verification i.e. we have to buy atleast one game to verify our account so that we can access its basic features like friend chat,add a friend etc.

Now if you dont want to buy a game and still get verified, then this tutorial is for you:

Carefully follow each step and please browse with Google Chrome Web Browser.

Step 1 : Go to CDAction and sign up with your real email (P.S. this site is in Polish and i would recommend you use Google Chrome because it automatically translates the page!

Step 2 :Verify your CDAction Forums account by confirming the link in your email

Step 3 :Go here DMMM and it will say that the CD key has been sent to your email (Remember you must login to your cdaction acc before accessing this page)
EDIT: If it says you need to be Polish then keep on refreshing the page until it sends u the email,If refreshing doesn't work then use a proxy

Step 4:Search your mail, you will find an email that contains a code, copy the code.

Step 5:Open Steam,Click GAME,then click Activate a product on Steam.

Step 6:A window will open up, now go through the windows by clicking next and when it prompts to enter the code,paste the code that you copied from your email and press next.

Step 7:Congrats, you have a verified Steam ID.

P.S. You dont need to download it just cancel when it asks to download the game.
