Mark the game as not received - not much else you can do.

The gifter has to give you the game, they made a giveaway for. You can only mark the giveaway as "received" when you get a working key for the promised giveaway.
If they don't reply to you and don't send you another key, then you can't really do something about it and will have to mark the giveaway as not received.

If he doesn't react to your attempts to contact him wait a week then mark as not received.

Usually that's not a mistake and people trying to pass of a free game as DLC. Request a valid key for the DLC or mark as not received after 7 days, and move on.

+1

i'd least of all inform the person that their key was invalid. rather then sit and wait 7days then mark it invalid so that they just then start to get the opportunity to correct it.

also make 100% sure you don't already own said dlc as well ofc.. ;)

in that case all you can do is wait till the 7day period is up, then just mark it as not received.. all you can try and do is contact them and if they choose to be non-responsive, least of all you tried.. ^^

Doesnt it say what the key is for when you try to activate and click next?

My point was above if it said for what game. If you already own it then you go next it will install the game you tried to activate the key for.

Additionally to marking it "not received" after 7 days you could also file a ticket for "misleading giveaway", because it seems apparently to have been one.

what you can do is make more giveaways, not have a single one created 3 months ago.

i just don't like the idea of someone that is registered for over 2 years making 1 single giveaway while winning over 20.

SG sometimes doesn't show up owned DLCs as owned and still lets you enter those giveaways. Check to see if you don't you own that specific DLC already.
