But what's the risk you're buying keys purchased with stolen funds like on sketchy video game key resellers?
You lose your 5-7€ because the code doesn't exist or has already been used.
That literally is it.
It is just a short string of letters and numbers, nothing nefarious can be done with that.
My concern was around situations where someone buys keys with a stolen credit card, and sells them as a form of money laundering.
That feels nefarious, and not participating in marketplaces with a high likelihood of participating in money laundering seems like a good method of harm reduction.
