PSA: My humble account is disabled

Open

Hi all.

I've traded and gifted a number of games here and on reddit in the last few weeks, all successfully, some Fanatical keys, some Humble keys and some Humble gift links.

But today I found a surprise logging into Humble. Or rather, not logging in, since my account is apparently disabled.

I've asked humble support to explain themselves, especially as I've yet to redeem several recent bundles worth of games to my steam account. I usually redeem 90% of the keys for myself, just stumbled open this subreddit when I looked around for what to do with spare keys. I have gifted some, traded others, but pretty low volume.

Figured I'd PSA this here as I reckon it's gift links that I've provided that are the issue.

Anyone else had problems like this. I'm gutted 😮

Well, after these happening, I have now become paranoid about trading. I WAS going to try and trade for something but not anymore.

"If the key being gifted was received through our Partner program, then they may give away this key as long as there is no cost to enter the said giveaway. While we welcome gifting keys to well-known friends, we cannot condone gifting away keys on open forums to strangers."

Just to clarify what is meant by "Partner Program."
