guide: how to detect a fake giveaway

indicators suggesting fake giveaway:

• registered less than 2 weeks ago

• less than 20 games on steam

• giveaway game on whishlist

• no games in steam inventory

• high priced giveaway

• no description

• less than one year on steam

• multiple copies given away

• game not on sale last few month

• call of duty

indicators suggesting valid giveaway:

• has done some giveaways

• description (first giveaway, promoting something ...)

• active member for some time

if most of the first list match, but none of the second -> probably fake

if at least one of the second matches -> probably legit

edit: do not call someone out, just because he fits this heuristic, its just probabilities and the giveaway may be legit. it just should help you spread your points where your chances of winning (and recieving) are higher.
