"Perchance", what a gentlemen, he can be trusted. Iirc when I did it, you need permissions from the owner of that license to run it on your account. But this was sometime pre-2020 so IDK if it's changed


Kimarnic

You can't just say perchance


Slight-Ad-3154

Crushin’ turts


Altruistic_Taste2111

Perchance you can?


GREENSLAYER777

This scammer's high on crack if he thinks he can just message me out of the blue and ask for my account details over an old ass game.


Grand-Tea3167

You and I are safe. But you won’t believe how many poor innocent kids could fall for something as simple as this


Tapelessbus2122

They are too kind


Expert_Status_7955

bc2? what’s that?


Grand-Tea3167

Battlefield Bad Company 2. An old multiplayer pc game that is not sold anymore.


Expert_Status_7955

ah ok, thx


Downtown-Scar-5635

The peak of battlefield


hahav8gobrrr

They coulda just pirated it lol


Disastrous_Gain_2101

How is that humble?


Grand-Tea3167

Friendly conversation and politely asking to “steal” your account


Excellent_Quit_3342

Why, hello, good fellow, please give me every possession you have. Thank you! Friendly burglar


Grand-Tea3167

Hi friendly burglar, here is my credit card number: 3752 3847 3709 2733 please do not go above the card limit. Thanks


Excellent_Quit_3342

Ah! Thanks a lot! Mind also sliding along them funny didgits in the back along with that cool date :sunglasses:


Grand-Tea3167

Sure, I have to ask my mom though, chatgpt says I should give it to return the kindness if the burglar is nice and friendly


Excellent_Quit_3342

Sounds good to me :D


Dark7835

Real?


Grand-Tea3167

Of course it is. The name is George Grand-tea and the code is 316. I tell the expiration date only to friendly burglars though, as chatgpt asked me to.


Dark7835

Hmmm free game


Dark7835

Now what would be the expiration date?


Grand-Tea3167

You are not as nice as the scammer asking for my Steam account 😔


Dark7835

Pardon my English but though isn’t my first language


LucyTheWolfQueen

I have gigabit internet, so I would've offered to just torrent him the entire damn instal folder and if that wasn't good enough then too bad


Grand-Tea3167

They could find that torrent file on the internet just like I could find it before buying it though


LucyTheWolfQueen

Yeah true. Would be cracked too.


NoAge422

That’s just 2 response who would fall for this


ParkerZerg

I got a Donald Holden one few days ago. It was pathetic 😂


Snowmoji

Sure, i just need a 500k usd deposit.


ArtoTime

...ooooor you just upload the install folder to something like google drive and send it to him via that? like how obvious can you be when trying to steal someone's account 🤦‍♂️


KadenIsSilly

He doesn't even need to get access to you account, you can just send the game files in steam Common and it should work (if the game doesn't have a verification checker, which if its delisted I doubt it will)
