Hey guys!
I've just won a game and received a link to redeem it but its not a link from one of the bundle websites. Its a direct link to the steam.community with the instructions in the URL that the redeemer is an email which is not mine. The URL seems to be truly belonging to steam, but this is just odd. Any ideas?

It's possible to create a gift link for a Steam gift, and they're accepted by the key field when creating a giveaway.

Yeah, I can see, but is it safe?

It's the same thing as if the owner sent it to your mail.

Yes, it's an official Steam feature, just check that the domain in the URL is the real Steam address.
About the mail in the link, I believe it's the mail from the gifter.

If you wanna be sure just check the person who sent you the link. How many gift had he sent? If a lot, then it's probably safe
