Get G2A to remove account selling off their site

[Gyeembo]

Been having issues with G2A trying to buy steam game codes, and yet when I go buy I get steam account log in details. Its against steams terms of service to sell accounts, but its allowed on G2A. I have expressed this to G2A support and they do nothing. Is there a way to push towards steam account selling there?

It's not an authorized key seller anyway, don't use it in the first place.

[Sasori Kigaru]

Better to just avoid that seller like the plague. Use authorized/trusted ones to buy steam game codes like humble bundle.

The fact that the site name is censored on Steam should tell you that you shouldn't be using the site to begin with.
Most of the time that site uses fraudulently obtained game keys.
Use isthereanydeal.com to find authentic key sellers.

So you are saying, criminals are doing criminal things? No way!

Seriously, if you don't want to get scammed, don't give scammers your money. Is that such a difficult concept?

It's quite funny that someone using a shady grey market site is somehow surprised they got ripped off.

I had to warn some discord users about this crap.
Buy a game from a site that gives you an account with the game on it is always going to end bad.

This could be part of why Steam Families dropped the account limit.

Oh it for sure is. And why its now region locked. Because most of those cheap accounts being sold are from regions with low game prices. And with the new Family Share system they cant be added to share their games to the users main account unless its from the same region.
That and the reduction of accouts you can receive shared games from from 10 to 6.

I am sure the raise in account resells on those greyzone reseller sites is a factor.

Also, once an account is removed from a family, it cannot be added to any family for a year.

The slot(out of the 6) that it occupied is also locked for a year.

I'm sure they've been contacted by attorneys and laughed it off as they are headquartered in places hostile to intellectual property laws.

They also spend conspicuous ammounts of money to whitewash their business and have youtubers and streamers praise their service.

They know what they're doing and largely don't care.

They must pay off YouTube so that the influencers don't get Community Guidelines strikes.

Reporting illegal activity to G2A, is like reporting theft to the mafia. I cannot think of a more underground, black market than that place ahahahahaha

[MonkehMaster]

report the site and stop buying stuff from scam/phishing sites doing illegal things?

Issues would imply you've had this occur on more than 1 occasion. Personally I would avoid any place where I am having an issue purchasing any item.
