How does a Starfield key looks like?

[Kiato]

Yea it's a weird question but I bought a key online and it doesnt seems to be valid.
the format looks like that:

AAAAA-BBBBB-CCCCC DDDDD-EEEEE-FFFFF

It seems wrong to me, did I just get scammed, it's a very famous key revendor.

Why buy a third-party steam key? I assume they are not discounting that much. Maybe you got a region locked steam key?

[RGBPlays]

only get it from official redistributors ie humble or green man gaming

They look like little credit cards/electronic hotel room keys, theyre yellow or orange, and sometimes found on the same small pedestals you can find recordings.

If what you have doesn’t look like that then something’s wrong.

Depends where they live, tons of countries have regional version issues, licensing issues, amongst other things, for a lot of people keys are the only way to buy a game lol

They probably saw it on discount and purchased it though, I hope they haven't been scammed.

OP, if the website is legitimate they should be able to provide you with a working key. What can happen with key sellers is that, a key can get mixed up with one already sold so it will invalidate any further use after that, contact their support and tell them whats happened. If they're on the level, they'll replace your invalid key for a working key - if its legitimate. If they refuse or do not answer, call your bank and block the transaction, your money should get refunded, there is usually a 2 week minimum for online purchases to protect against fraud.

Which vendor did you buy from?

Mine was only 3 sections of 5 alphanumerics for both the main game and pre-order bonuses. So two keys were needed for the main game and the pre-order bonuses.

Not all steam keys have the exact same format.
