Hi all. Is it allowed to giveaway Origin keys on Steamgifts? I just won one and have no idea what to do with it lol, because i haven't Origin and don't want to install it. Author of GA already sent me the key, but i'm a bit confused and have no idea if it's ok to mark it as Not received, because it's Origin. So, that's why i'm here =)

Btw, i just found all his GAs and all of them are Origin keys. He is notifying ppl about that in GA's description. So what should i do?

Since i don't need Origin key, i will just leave it here. Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 - Uprising: 4SXF-4SGH-Q3ZM-FQ9V-XT56

First of all contact the creator of the giveaway (he must know whats going on after all) and tell him that origin keys are not allowed on steamgifts, if he does not provide you steam key mark as not received

Report the user, since this is a Steam focused site, hence the name SteamGifts

I wasn't even talking about the Steam gift. He placed the won origin key here.. I don't know if it's allowed or not, but it could have been done better.

He shouldn't be giving out Origin keys here (through the giveaway system, anyway).

You shouldn't be giving away the key on the forum either. You should have just not activated it and told him to find another place to give it away.

You have to admit it's a nice lesson for the GA creator.

You have to mark it as "not received" + you can report the GA creator if you want (gifting non-Steam redeemable game = 24 hr. suspension).
If you mark it as received you can be suspended for 5 days for "not activating won gift".
