You're f... err.. screwed. No one from Valve/Steam will ever contact you about needing your password and email address.

Go here and follow the instructions listed.

You might get lucky and be able to get your account back.

Go through the Steam Support first and see if you can get it back, if you can't then yes you'd need to create another account and rebuy the games.

Please refrain from using numbers, symbols or lines to replace were a swear word would go. Next time try structuring a sentence without the swear words being present (including symbols and such replacing them).
