Ever won a giveaway and had it turn out fake? [Group giveaway- almost over, 2 spots left]

I have as well, it was pretty lame.

i do sadly meet the requirements :(
invite me to share the feels?

I "won" Trine :/ but then WON Trine again :D

Sent up to here

I won a giveaway for King Arthur 2 a while ago. The guy contacted support and had it removed well after it was finished. I was declared the winner and kept contacting him for days, he simply said 'sorry, no giveaway, forgot i didnt have game' and support deleted the giveaway. It doesnt show in my won games list on profile but I can show proof my screening the support ticket.

Besides that, nice seeing a group dedicated to this!
I hereby open an application!

let me in...when i first started here i won borderlands 2 season pass...super excited because i just bought the game...then nothing...just the annoying message that i was a winner :(

then over 1k entries later and a month i finally won last night...2 games in fact! darksiders 2 and RE 5....was about to give up on this site too :)

i passed i think.
where i should send cv?:P

Won Saints Row 2 once.

The guy had it in his games list. First GA here. Had registered just a few hours ago.

He maybe thought he could give away his Steam games like that.

I never received anything.

only on gala giveaways

i won both the expansions for modern warfare 2, and they were both fake

I once won a Magicka DLC. Thing about it was the guy e-mailed me just writing something in Spanish, with no links or anything. I didn't quite understand it, so I just figured it was spam. I hadn't logged on Steamgifts in a while, so I didn't even know that I won. The guy sent me a steam friend request, I accepted, but he never responded to anything I said so I just removed him shortly after... It wasn't until a month later that I realized what happened, and that guy was furious. I apologized and made peace with him, but the miscommunications meant I didn't get anything... Which is totally fair, so no complaints here.

Yes, I won The Last Remnant and the guy that did the giveaway told me he gave the key to someone else. :(

Next wave sent up to this point.

No callouts here but please read the rules and don't apply if you've clearly broken some.

A long time ago I entered a giveaway to win Portal. It was (or would have been) my first win but the guy ended up never sending the gift
so.
yeah.

Never, but hate fake giveaways, good luck :)

Had won Magika, however the key that was sent was region locked to poland

I have, was a long time ago, odd though that it doesn't appear on my profile or wins anymore, have The Darkness II already but thanks anyways :-D.

Going to bed. I'll check this very briefly in the AM before heading to the hospital for clinics.

a guy i won it from ended up being banned!

You don't like me! D: I simply made a counting error when I was taking inventory of my keys and made 2 giveaways too many... ;_;

That's happened to me once before... The worst part is the guy who created the giveaway had two copies of the game in his inventory for months after the giveaway ended. :(

I would like an invite please. :D

its happened to me twice. two times ive won fake giveaways, and both times the mods simply deleted the giveaways instead of suspending or banning, or even putting a NOT RECEIVED next to the giveaway makers name.

faith and respect in sg moderation team forever lost.

this was just a rant, already have the game so not looking for an entry into the group :) nice giveaway btw.

I would look for an invite, but not for this giveaway of Darkness 2. I already have the PO and don't need to win it. As for my only non-received, it's the evar famous SMB(Super Meat Boy). Steam removed it from my lib and I gotten my ass kicked cause of that.

Hey , Can I join the group?
