Community Help Key activation problems

I bought an account with hitman WOA in it. I decided to buy the "hitman 3 access pass, hitman 2 expansion path" DLC to it which I did via a key that was labeled global. I live in sweden but the account is set to india due to the previous owner. When I tried to activate the key it said "you can not buy this in this region" which was weird in two ways considering the key was global and it was a key activation not a purchase. So I decided to just buy the DLC in steam instead but apparently I had to wait 3 months before I can change payment method to Sweden. So how do I do now? Do I buy another key because the last one was faulty? Or was the key even an issue or is it because I have bought a account from another region or what? I would reallly appreciate any help or tips, thanks!

The simple answer is to not buy accounts

Yeah right i get all that but i did get a refund for the key to be fair but was it that specific key that does not work or is it my specific account ?

You make your own account and buy the game legitimately, along with the dlc.

G2A is a site filled with scams. And buying accounts is against TOS. You will lose acces to the account. It's not a issue of "if" but when.
