Yeah, I've been there myself when I released my first game on Steam. I was kinda excited at first when they reached out to me, but I quickly began to see a pattern. Everytime I visited their channel, I noticed that in some cases, they hadn't been online for months. They also usually copycat the original email address of the creator. 

I told them, they could record one of my free games here on itch, then I would convincingly grant them a free key, but they never responded to that.

And FYI, you can actually block Steam keys on Steam. Just be careful you don't accidently block keys from though.

I have had the same experience. There were accounts that had their last streaming 8 years ago. I blocked all the keys that were sent. However, there were accounts that occasionally sent a reply, which made me confused if they were genuine or not. Of course, I didn’t do any streaming.
