Geolocation is unreliable at best.
I'm the only one who uses and has access to the Steam account and the mobile phone running the SMA, so i have a very clear idea who login in when on my account.
I have yet to see my hometown in this list.
Also, some outliers are over 500km away from where i actually live.

i had the same thing happen to me around the 5th of apr and i was in fact hacked. had to reset all my passwords to games and steam. Not sure how they get in. never enter password anywhere. steam is only source of log in for me... hmm

They most likely got in via your email and just chose the "forgot password" option.
At least, that's how they got in when I was hacked.

Yea i had a login from 5 states from me and as close as 50 miles away. Only i have access to my phone and pc and believe the one logged in from 5 states away was probably my phone data. Plus my password will be so hard to crack and would take many years to brute force it. Cause it's 32 characters long.

^This. Geolocation is not always accurate, and can possibly be unreliable as well.

Just some tips to help protect yourself.
1. Ensure to never login from 3rd party sites that ask for your login details, go visit the main sites such as https://store.steampowered.com/ or https://steamcommunity.com/ as those are the ones you're suppose to be loggin to, no where else.

2. Never share password with others, or over online services that can be watched by others, or has access by others especially like schools, or etc as IT's can watch what you do, and record your inputs. Or using a someone server to type details on, as that someone that owns the server can view the logs later, but you get the point.

3. It's not recommended to use same username / email, or password for everything, as if one service has a data leak, hijackers will try to use those details to see what they can find tied to them.

4. If the service you use such as email, Steam, etc, etc, or etc supports 2FA, it's recommend to add it, for Steam it's recommend to get the Steam mobile app, if email supports Google auth app, then that's great too, and add it, but ensure to write down your recovery codes, because if you lose your device, or whatever reason that can't gain access to the app, then you need those recovery code's, or else you're going to have to jump some hoops, and will take sometime as you need to prove you're the owner of the account to support, which they will ask questions, as that's why it's important to write the recovery code's somewhere like in a book you can put away in safe place.

Although gelocation isn't always accurate as said, if you have a string of logins that weren't you regardless of the location and/or there are multiple different locations; that means someone has access to your account.

This can stem from being a regular user of 3rd party sites, persistently using contaminated/insecure devices, haivng malware on your machine or other forms of device exploits.

You have a very notorious site linked to phishing in your name history and if you want to be safe, stay away from 3rd party sites like that. A lot of people get hijacked without evening knowing until it's too late i.e they send a trade and it gets cancel asled and then redirected to a scammer.

This is the comment

Sometimes it was just inaccurate geolocation.

Just make sure the location does have similar pattern as before.

Otherwise it's obvious there might be malware our hijacker trying to steal the account.

Scan your PC for possible malware.

If you're using VPN, that should be a clue.

They had huge data breaches for sites in the last couple of years. If you are using the same login credentials as what was hacked and stolen, then that may be how.
I, like you, almost never use anything other than the main app to login from, but I still have a lingering hacker that tries to access my steam account still to this day. I honestly think it's funny. I can't wait to get rich and actually track these turds down You think batman is scary, just wait until you see what can be done with alot of money and a few friends.

Change your passwords that you've been using a couple years ago. They accessed sites and were able to get peoples emails, passwords, the whole bag on a very large scale. I've had all kinds of stuff hacked into and even had someone impersonating and claiming to be my father on facebook..[which was reported by his friend] and that was just recently, so there's more to that story than a normal hacker from out of country.

Years ago I found a site publicly publishing my credentials and actually asked the mod to kindly take it down or there would be trouble [I'd be turning them in to the cybercrimes unit]...Needless to say, they obliged. [They had HUGE PAGES of playstation accounts] I still have a picture of the page!!!

It could also be a local hacker in your area...Or someone you made angry? [disgruntled ex!]
My ex wife 13 years ago got into my social accounts and wrote messed up stuff about me after we broke up....And my recent ex is not much better...[she stalked my accounts]
Connect the times the hacking occurred to anything you can remember happening in that time frame with you and you may be able to figure out where it came from...
