Valve kills physical Steam gift cards because you keep getting scammed

Valve is discontinuing physical Steam gift cards at retailers because scammers frequently use them to exploit people worldwide. According to updated Steam wallet support documentation spotted by SteamDB, scammers adapted to every security measure implemented by the company. Consequently, Valve has decided to transition to digital-only gifting to prevent further fraud. This move follows a series of restrictions that failed to stop the unstoppable nature of these scams targeting major brands like Steam.
