Hi,

I saw one person giving away a game that won yesterday on other site (steamcompanion). It was a developer giveaway for foresight (1000keys).

So, the question is, it is legal here to giveaway a game that you won in other site?
Where should I report him? Here? On steamcompanion? Both?

Maybe could be more people doing the same with this, so how can i search for ended giveaways of a specific game?

Thank you.

If you need to redeem your game you won at steamcompanion, then you should report him there. I guess it is ok for steamgifts.

both. SC for not activating the won game & giving it away.
SG for creating misleading g/a.

That assumes he'll sort things out with SC. If he doesn't, there should be no action in Steam Gifts.

well yeah. Sane people tend to agree with rules in fear of punishment at least.

in case of SC - report him there, as he broke SC rues (he should activate it). Don't report on SG, as he didn't break SG rules.

in case of other GA sites (PlayBlink, GameMiner, SteamPortal) which do not require activation of won gift regifting it on SG is ok, as it's not brealking any rules.

As others have said if he didn't break a rule here just report him in steamcompanion.
Although, I recently saw a user do the same here, he even admitted it in the description, that's what made me look, if not I probably wouldn't have bothered. After searching a little more I noticed he had done the same thing with a giveaway he won here. He made the giveaway in steamcompanion a day after he won the game here and didn't have the game activated in his account.
