steam flagged buyed account

steam flagged buyed account

I purchased a Steam account containing the Forza Horizon 6 Premium Edition via G2A. Yesterday, this account was flagged, and I can no longer access any of its features. I then attempted to manually link my Xbox account anyway; however, as soon as I landed on the Steam page to perform the linking, I received an "Error" message.

What happens if I launch the game for the first time this Friday? Is there a chance the linking process might work then?

Furthermore, what is the situation regarding G2A? The account being flagged was not my fault; I did not make any purchases, change the store region, or use any gift cards—I merely updated the account details. Do I have grounds to request a refund from G2A or demand a replacement account?

I just stumbled across this reddit in look for g2a stuff. Boy, I didn't know it was a scam.

Once I bought ready or not for 40$. It was 60$ instead. Lowk pissed but didn't think much of it. I still play it so. I won't be buying from them again.

What sites should I use?

Can I add funds to my steam wallet on a bought account?

A while ago I bought a steam account (containing only Dead by Daylight) with no issues. I want to make an in-game purchase, but I would have to add funds to my Steam Wallet in order to do that. Problem is, my region is set to Ukraine, and I am not from there, although I am situated in a neighboring country, i dunno if that would help in any way.

Can I safely pay to add funds to my wallet without the risk of getting banned? Or would buying a gift card be a better way to go? How do I go about this? Thank you!

EDIT: i wanted to add the fact that, when i bought the account, the region was already set to Ukraine, and I was instructed not to change the location or else some features will be permanently disabled. The currency values of Ukraine's and my country's differ by a considerable amount, as it's much cheaper.

I ordered this a week ago. Didn't know it was an account so asked for a refund. Refund was denied, but now Junao_Games won't give me the account information and G2A won't reply to my ticket.

I paid. My money is gone. And I still have not got the game.

Hello everyone,

I wanted to share my experience as a former seller on G2A, as I believe it’s important for other sellers to be aware.

My account was suddenly banned, and I was asked to provide verification documents. I submitted everything requested, but despite that, my account was permanently banned without a clear explanation.

What’s worse is that over €23,000 (around $28,000) of my funds were frozen. At first, I assumed this was temporary and part of the review process. However, it has now been more than 2 years, and the funds are still locked with no resolution or withdrawal option.

My seller rating was above 98%, with a very low complaint rate. Since the freeze, there have only been a few complaints, which makes the situation even more confusing.

Most of the products I sold were 1-year keys. If the concern was potential revocations, logically the funds should have been released after that period, but that never happened.

I strongly advise other sellers to be cautious when using this platform.

If anyone else has had a similar experience, feel free to share it in the comments.

First of all, I've been using G2A to buy psn keys for a long time, and I've never had an issue before. Today I bought a 20€ code but it didn't work, I contacted the seller who sent me another one that also didn't work because it's for a different region than mine. After telling them it didn't work and why, they stopped responding.

I'm so distraught I'm shaking. It tooks me weeks to scrape 20€ together just for this to happen...

Please help, I will never use G2A again if this is not solved.

SCAM ALERT: Vikingsbrothers Sells Keys for Unavailable Software & G2A Protects Them

I purchased a key for EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard Professional 18 (Order #92000150291760) on April 13, 2026. The seller, Vikingsbrothers, is selling keys for a specific software version that is no longer available for download.

When I brought this to their attention, the seller engaged in weeks of stall tactics. Despite me explaining multiple times that the official EaseUS site only provides the current version (v20+), which doesn't accept the v18 key, they repeatedly asked for "screenshots" of the missing download and tried to force me to accept a "replacement" key for the same unavailable version.

G2A has been useless. They have allowed this seller to drag out the conversation for nearly a month without intervening, despite the order status being "Holded." It is clear G2A’s "Buyer Protection" is non-existent. Do not buy from Vikingsbrothers unless you want to pay for a key you can't use.

I bought "PlayStation Plus Premium 12 Months - PSN Account - GLOBAL" from VouchersKingdom. The subscription on the provided PSN account shows only a 6‑month purchase and PlayStation Plus already ended in April 2026, so I did not receive the full 12 months I paid for. The seller previously corrected the same issue once for this same purchase, but the problem has returned and now the seller keeps closing the conversation without resolving it. Previous support tickets for this case were automatically closed as completed while the problem still exists. I currently have no active PS Plus on that PSN account.

I opened couple of tickets with g2A support and they just reply with some sample text to contact seller. After that they just dissapear. I don't know if they ever helped anybody.

Reposting it since apparently using a curse word gets my post removed, lol

If stuff gets ugly I can just get a chargeback but id like to try and be civil first.

I havent gotten the account yet since I noticed just after the payment that it was indeed an account and not a key so i stopped myself from clicking anything else product wise.

I sent a message to the vendor but from what i have been reading online, they dont necessarily have a good reputation (World of Games or something)
