So yeah few days ago I got the free steam key for Redactem from this site . Activated it and now I got a message on steam that this game has been removed from my account "due to a problem processing payment for this item". So are this sites getting the keys not legit way or something?

Keys revoked? Here's what happened!
If you've recently had a key for Redactem revoked, here's why. On the 27th of August, a giveaway for Redactem was published using keys that were not obtained legitimately. 10,000 Redactem keys were leaked onto Reddit due to a web security issue. We rushed to revoke these keys as soon as possible, before people could redeem them as to not cause trouble with our players. However Valve does not respond to emails during weekends so these keys were only revoked today, after 5000 of them had already been redeemed, as we had already requested they be revoked, we were unable to stop it.
We are currently in talks with the site that accidently leaked the keys, and are considering legal action. Thank you for your understanding and patience during this time.
