Are redeemable codes safe?

I'm getting RS for pc off of steam, I also see redeemable codes for sale. Just looking for some feedback on this before I go through with it, and would be glad to hear anybody's input.

Depend on the source of the code, but to be honest i wouldn't trust any third site to give up that kind of code.

I would just get it from Steam, Ubisoft, or GreenManGaming. Any 'CD-Key' website runs off of stolen credit cards. The best (and perhaps only) way you can support Ubisoft is using a legitimate source.

Steam is the only official reseler for Rocksmith DLC, buying it anywhere else means that it can come from anywhere legal or not... (even Uplay doesn't sell rocksmith DLC directly).

I decided just to fork over the $40 despite already owning the game on 360, it's a small price to pay to play anything I want.
