^ Do not offer anything to these scammers.

Edit : This user : https://www.indiegala.com/trades/user/7f3cb7dce29e11eb806ebfd6a54537fe 100% got something to do with those 2 accounts! Although it may looks safe to trade with when you check the recent reps but it is not! Fake reps shared between those accounts on the same day + he got a legit -rep (Doubt that it will be the only one), so be careful.
Is the same scammer (Elver Gaston, NENA, Fiolta and Zeus)

Zeus

Wait, Sea of Thieves never released Steam CD Keys even though it's on Steam?
Steam Page: Save 40% on Sea of Thieves on Steam (steampowered.com)
That is correct. Only purchasable for Steam directly ON Steam. If you find it elsewhere, it's always an Xbox code (I mean it's probably for PC, but I mean like for the Microsoft Store, if that makes sense - I have never used that platform, so no idea how it works over there)

This sometimes happens, as was the recent case with Last Oasis - it's a multiplayer game that was part of Humble Monthly/Choice but cannon be purchased anywhere except Steam, not even on Humble Store even though Humble put it in one of their bundles. Weird stuff

https://www.indiegala.com/trades/user/da8de85e073e11eba4ea1feabf51fa45 : This clown is a well known scammer as reported last year here and now he's back at it again. Looks like november is his favorite month.

2: https://www.indiegala.com/trades/post/245703 - https://www.indiegala.com/trades/post/245715
https://www.indiegala.com/trades/user/d873ca3a3eeb11eca90d231fbc11a880 : I mean ... it's too obvious.

3: https://www.indiegala.com/trades/user/c9f98cb3230d11ec84973f79eb5e7437 : This is a new account of this scammer who's already got reported. He got few giveaway games listed on the trading section.

I just got scammed

https://www.indiegala.com/trades/user/c3d57e8ad21a11eaad92bb7ce389ad4d

He gave me a duplicated key. I contacted him to fix it, but he kept me busy for 2 days by constantly offering games I had. I said that I could accept any game that was either offered or close to the same price and that I did not have. Then he gave me a key to the game I gave him in the trade and said he didn't care if I accepted it or not. He then cut off communication. By the way, I gave the key he gave me for the same game to a friend to try and the result was duplicated again. Cheap and vulgar scammer, beware

Here's his Steamtrades profile : Reputation for 76561198001854840

and here's his games list : [H] Games [W] Games

You can leave him a negative review there and it will damage his rep a bit. Make sure to post screenshots of the chat history.

Good luck & be more careful next time.

By the way, it seems that he created only 1 giveaway from his indiegala trade profile and has 36,000 exp. So the giveaway he opened was also Facerig Studio and I bet it was 100% fake.

Now he has started trading with his own fake accounts to get fake reputation :) The two profiles that commented after me are level 0 and profiles that have never taken action before. I'm ashamed to be scammed by such a child.
