What could be done to reduce the number of fake giveaways on SG?

Permaban those fake gifters, OF course.

That was pretty obvious. XD

I don't know.. I don't think it's that prevalent that warrants immediate attention. It'd be nice to crack down on fake giveaways, but frankly they're not very hard to spot.

More restrictions for registration

Nothing.

Anyway things that could make people read the FAQ:

1) A test about the FAQ.

2) Rename the link to the FAQ in "Fr33 Geams her!!!!"

3) Display the FAQ 30 minutes every time you load a new page.

Optional>>When the first register they are redirected to the rule page. Each rule would have a letter at the end. Once you type in say 4-5digit code you can proceed.<<Optional When creating a giveaway they are given a tutorial or a go-along instructions, when they select a game a message will pop up covering the screen and presenting rules, information & information (note this will only happen once on their first time of creating a giveaway). They will proceed if they do meet the requirements and go along to finishing their giveaway. -OR- When they create a giveaway, there will be message pop ups when they select a game asking if they are in possession of the code or gift or whatever, if they choose yes then they will proceed if not then they will not be allow to create a giveaway for a while and there would be a message saying read the rules or something like that. -OR- My third option just put up a HUGE sign saying READ THE RULES and there will be this tiny as button that you could barely see it, that's hidden in the rules. So like an i in a word or the letter o could be the button, Idk something atleast.

Start educating people to read in schools

Some kind of bot system, like on this site starting with a letter P. Creators HAVE to give gift or key to a bot, but this would eliminate giveaways where creators are GOING to buy a game after end of giveaway.

Once gifters giveaway is closed he is no longer able to enter new giveaways/win giveaways/or even earn points until his gift is confirmed recieved. I swear I'm not bitter at the leech who after a year finally did a giveaway for a $1 dlc and has made zero attempts to contact me after 2 days even though he's been on both steam and steamgifts for at least 12 hours each since it ended. for anyone who cares you can find him here http://www.steamgifts.com/user/Remax

I think there should be a huge warning for people that are making their first giveaway. Optionally, there could be a one-time check if the gift is in the user's inventory for his first giveaway. True that people can gift cd-keys, but if SG enforces that the first giveaway is a gift from the inventory, theorically NO ONE would mistakenly create a fake giveaway due to lack of knowledge.

Thank you for your replies. This thread was actually a hidden giveaway, but the subject does not cease to be important.

Make it so that a User has to read the rules before they can gift and can't gift a game for 10 days till after they joined.

How many fakes are around these days?
I only see one or two and they are pretty obvious with gifting games like Black ops 2 type of game from a new user with little in their steam accounts.
