Worst case for you is you don't get the game you won. Worst case for the giveaway creator is they get penalized for not keeping their end of the rules.
Either way, you're good as long as you mark it as "NOT RECEIVED", even if the key does work on another platform say Uplay/Origin. If it's not a steam key you can't mark it received or you'll have issues later on and risk a suspension for not activating received win.

May I ask which game it was, you have won? o_O
Not that it really matters, but maybe we can see if it's a key for another platform like Uplay for example...
Like I said, it doesn't really matter, because it doesn't change the fact that it's not working. i'm just curious xD
Oh, and yeah. The only solution is to contact the giveaway creator. You should NOT mark the game as received until you have got a working key...

I won a game and got the code sent to me a few hours after. but the code says it is invalid. It's only 14 characters long, which makes me think it was an error.
I don't see any way to message them on here, and when I sent a friend request to their linked Steam account they didn't accept.
I'm not sure what to do.
Any ideas? :o
