Apparently they just sell you an account with the game or some family sharing shenanigans, best just to avoid these sites.

I didn't encounter that on the site I bought from...I don't think. And it was the only way to get the game by that point, the developer had closed their sales so it was this or piracy. I chose to pay for a key than to pirate.

Technically I'd paid for the game twice. I bought it back in the day for the OUYA and then again for Steam, because I wanted to play the game. I think it's a shame that it wasn't more popular because it was a fun game.

They sell a steam account and some people are mad because they didn't notice, I honestly don't blame them who think they are going to get an account when on a key reseller website. Or family sharing an account?

They dont sell keys, they expect you to link your account to other existing ones through family share

Who knows I expect stolen accounts were involved.
