Would Steam ban me if i use VPN?
Steam might block you if you use a VPN, especially for games like Just Cause 3. Using a VPN can affect your account status depending on the platform's rules. It’s best to check Steam’s official guidelines or consult a trusted source before proceeding.
It's unlikely. You might want to reach out to Steam support and let them know you received the code as a gift from a friend; they could offer you an EU one if they think it's appropriate.
I've encountered four key categories: NA - North America, EA - East Asia, RU - Russia, and ROW - Rest of World/Global. OP likely has a NA key. OP using a VPN to access cheaper games is against the Steam Subscriber Agreement and could result in account suspension. You'll need to use the VPN each time you start the game. I don't know much about this.
The most secure option is to sell or trade it using the provided code.
I've heard from friends who use VPNs to stream America's Army: Proving Grounds and haven't experienced any Steam account bans yet. I don't believe you'll get banned unless you misbehave. You might want to reach out to support for help (lol...ask support).
