Same as any other illegality. It's legal until you get caught. The account will work fine until for one reason or another it becomes obvious you're not the original owner of the account, and then it's banned. Billing changes, location changes, ip changes, confession, etc.

Maybe some generations later in the future it becomes suspicious. Valve want gain money and there is no reason that it will deep investigate if the downloads are still paid from the same account and paid with the same banc account, irrelevant if it's from a different IP or ISP, that are things that can change even with the same user (transladet to other city, changing provider or PC, etc).

But imagine if the original owner bought Skyrim, and then you have to buy it again if you want to play it. Two Skyrim moneys!

Anyway, if I'm dead I'll give a fuck if Valve want to claim something
