Hi everyone! For weeks now I have been finding ads on facebook for sellers of PS4, PS5, XBOX ONE, XBOX SERIES S/X games for only 3 TO 5 USD. (Conversion of my currency). So I decided to open this thread so that we can collaborate in giving an opinion or trying to find how they do it.
I have attached some images of the publications of these sellers

They say they sell you redeemable codes on your own account and not shared accounts (shared accounts: a method well known by the xbox community). My question is where do they get these supposed codes?
I did an investigation and a while ago there was a failure in the xbox store where people changed the region of their country to Argentina or Turkey so they could buy games (codes) as gifts at a ridiculous price, deluxe editions and AAA games for 1 dollar and what this people did was buy ridiculous cheap and resell in other countries at a higher price, but this has already been patched, forcing the store and the payment card to be from the same country and not international payments.
But I've seen these vendors keep adding recent games, keep selling and say their codes don't require VPN to redeem so how do they do it? Does anyone have any answers?
And as a last piece of information, an example is this store that has The Callisto Protocol Deluxe Edition for 4 USD, absurd. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SPRCICO...sp=sharing
