Queen’s Gambit:

  1. d4 d5

  2. c4
    White offers a pawn to gain control of the center.

No pawn offer. 2...dxc4 does not win a pawn as many White moves can regain it. The simple one is 3.Qa4+. Later in the game White may sacrifice the pawn, but 2.c4 is not a sacrifice and the opening is not a gambit despite its name.

They offer the pawn but it’s better to avoid this sacrifice.
