I believe bots scrape the internet for these, unfortunately :(

I assume these codes are limited to just this app? What would the bots do with individual licenses?

I presume they would claim them with fake/fresh username/email info to get legitimate licenses/keys, then resell those after the fact.

You get the app directly, no key you can resell.

The codes worked, I claimed the third one of the second set I think about three minute after they were added to the post. At that point at least six of the other codes were gone.
