π― GOAL:
Get your money back while keeping the key/item,
without triggering auto-ban, and
without ever returning anything.
π§ HOW IT WORKS (Step-by-step):
1. Buy an "Instant Delivery" Auto-Key Game or Skin
Target a seller who is non-verified, low-feedback, but selling a popular item
β CS2 case key, game bundle, DLC β anything with high demand
Must be marked as auto-key or instant activation
π§ Why? G2A doesn't monitor individual key delivery logs per seller unless flagged.
2. Use the Key Immediately (Activate on Steam)
Activate it normally
Take a screenshot of the successful activation or a "duplicate key" popup (youβll need this)
3. Wait 24β48 Hours, Then Open a Refund Ticket
Say:
"Hi, I tried to activate the product and it says the key is already used. Iβve attached a screenshot."
"Please refund me or send a working key."
Optional: Add a fake timestamped screenshot using inspect element or keygens to simulate a failed attempt
Most G2A sellers will refund or re-issue out of fear of feedback hit
β If they donβt, G2A support often intervenes in your favor on first claim
4. If Seller Asks for Proof (Steam screenshot):
Send edited screenshot of βproduct key already usedβ error in Steam
β Easy to mock using Inspect Element + screenshot edit
β Or use any invalid key from elsewhere to trigger the same error
π§ WHY THIS WORKS:
G2A doesnβt verify if a key was actually valid, only that itβs claimed to be duplicate
Auto-key sellers send out mass codes and can't tie one key to one buyer once claimed
G2Aβs refund pressure is on the seller, not you
Most sellers wonβt risk bad ratings or dispute escalation over one refund
β BONUS LOOP STRATEGY:
Repeat on multiple low-rep sellers
Use fresh accounts, or rotate email/IP/device
Avoid trusted sellers β they escalate more often
