I got a question regarding two accounts from one IP

Closed

Hey guys. I got a question, regarding the two accounts from one IP (me and my brother). He is home temporary (for a month or two afaik) so would it be a problem if we both visit steamgifts, but only he enters giveaways ? That means I'll be only active in forums and not entering giveaways (only private ones if it's allowed, puzzlez ftw =D). Thanks in advance <3

Edit: not like I was entering giveaways anyway :D

Actually, if Support notice and you haven't alerted them to it, its a ban hammer for you. Might want to get on that.

Really? My brother and sister have also used this site so I guess I should notify the support then. Should I use the "Submit a Question" on support tab?

I don't think it should be a problem, as long as you both have each own individual steamgifts account, but if you're worried, you might want to wait till support answered

If he logged in on another ip before coming to your place it shouldn't cause any issues even if you'd enter normal giveaways I think... If you'll ask support you'll get the best answer though

I'm waiting already 4 weeks for kind of important thing for me, this non-important question will cause me to wait at least month or two..

Make a ticket, otherwise you risk both accounts being banned. Include a link to his profile in the ticket as well.

This happened to me, after around 5-6 months of using Steamgifts, it came up that me and my brother where both banned, we got in contact with support and we finally got it resolved. The support I talked to said that I should've contacted them earlier, so go ahead and contact them right now.

Wait, this is a thing? I guess I shouldn't be encouraging my brother to join in on SteamGifts while he lives with me...

No, go ahead, but first, let Support know. They need to make sure it is listed as family. I imagine they also check for obvious alts though.
