Step 1 - His feedback score is lowered (or stays 0)
Step 2 - The number of giveaways the user can create runs out
Step 3 - Admins/mods ban him eventually

It depends on context. If the person is misleading in the description, its a ban. If its by mistake, lowered percent rating when gift is marked not received. From experience, I think its best just to mark not received and hopefully the user creates more giveaways that do follow the rules.

he said that his friend said he could do a giveaway if he has a game and steamgifts will gift to me ( i guess out of thin air)

He tried saying steamgifts said the email was sent to me and when i said "its okay man you didnt buy the gift to giveaway" then he came to truth and said sorry.

I realize none of this will get my award but i was just wondering i dont want to let him go on doing fakeaways

I totally understand you. What scares me most is that these people don't even have a bad conscience. In this case for example - paying Titan Quest wouldn't have been that hard...

He should be banned really. Anyone that lacks that much common sense has no business operating a computer without an anvil falling on their head.

misunderstood the site?

Some guys think they get free games by creating giveaways?

You'd be surprised. I won a giveaway now almost a week ago, no contact from its creator and I'm seriously thinking this is the case now. The description included in the giveaway was something along the lines of "this is a really good game". Brilliant :'D

Click not received and then e-mail the admins.

by now its pretty clear hes not going to give it to you. you can try to contact him if you want (and if you havent already) to tell him you will contact the admin and he will likely get banned if he doesnt gift you the game you won.

if he ignores you or tells you he still wont gift you, then mark it as not recieved and inform the admin team... he will most likely get banned.

edit: now that i look at the guys account, it seems pretty clear he doesnt intend to use the site, so threatening him with a ban wont do anything. he WONT give you the game, so just mark it as not received, and tell the staff...
