Don't call out. Wait 7 days, then mark as unreceived. Tough luck.

If he says he won't give you the game, report him on his Steamgifts profile and move on.

Have you even tried to contact him? Or did you just check his inventory & suspect it was a dud GA?

3 hours, dude... It's been 3 hours since the GA ended. Give it some time.

Remove the link, unless you want a suspension.

If he can't give it to you (have you spoken to him yet?), do as the above advice indicates.

"winner must friend on steam"
As seen on the giveaway link - did you do that? Give him the benefit of the doubt before...what the people above said

well...

1- Befriend him on steam.

2- open chat and talk him about the giveaway. If the answer is "I have no game to give to you" take a screenshot.

3- let 7 days pass.

4- Report.

Well a guy who has a giveaway deleted for "didn't understand how the site works" doesn't really give an air of confidence. Considering every single game he is attempting to give away is currently in his library with little or no play time.... A lot of people still are unaware you can't trade "used" (activated) games.

This, my friend has asked me three times if he can give the games he has in his library (and of course, how much would this bundled games give him in CV). He even had a thread on steamtrades trying to sell his Portal because he had already beaten it.

there are many people out there who give away games they don't even own themselves in their library. easy example are bundled games that drown steamgifts everytime one come out. there is a guy who started a giveaway of batman arkham origins yesterday, and he says he gives it away because he got it with some hardware and has no interrest in it

Many people (myself included) sometimes gift Steam keys, and not always Steam gifts.

Just because it's not in his Steam inventory doesn't mean he doesn't have a copy of the game. Just wait 7 days, if you get nothing, try to contact. If still nothing, mark as not received and move on.

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it funny, that the OP, being on this site for 1 year+, having won 16 gifts out of 9000+ entries, does not know what to do in this situation? I'm not flaming or anything, just saying. lol

You should immediately panic when you discover it, and then open a thread on SteamGifts obviously!

It is strange that the Admin of this site are very fast ban fake call out but they do not response to people who actually really do a fake giveaway. I had 1 giveaway reported, with screenshot submitted 1 month ago, till now the admin has not yet suspend him(I checked everyday)

What if it wasn't a fake giveaway?

Yeah. I've seen multiple GAs where the giver doesn't own the game til like a day after it ends, but they do eventually (within the week) buy it for the winner. Hell, I won two games where the owner didn't actually have it in steam inv until the end.

You should be patient. When I win games here I don't try to contact the gifter at all. It just makes you look desperate and impatient. Let them send you the game in their own time or face a report from you after 7 days.

I agree. If I was the giver, it would really piss me that someone almost demands the free game I'm giving away, just because he can't wait few hours ! And I'd do a reroll right away...

I agree on the fact that it is rude to contact the gifter yourself (unless he asked the winner to), but I don't think support would reroll based on that reason.

It's rude, but unfortunately not a good enough reason to re-roll.

If someone does that to me, I make them wait the 7 days

I disagree. Some giveaway creators write in their giveaways that they want the winner to contact them. Thus if the creator doesn't write anything, there is no reason to assume either way.

It depends actually. If i didn't contacted one person who game i've won here that to remind him that i've won the gift two days after (and yes if he wanted me to make me wait 7 days i would wait) i would have no game. Why? because he mischecked my email and sent it without an .com (he wrote .co). But i've added him and warned him about the gift (as he may have forgot to send or like i've said if he wanted me to wait i would) and he checked that was fault on his part and all went good as i may say. So actually it depends.
