michel lane Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 Just to let you all be aware of this new scam that they are trying . A large amount of software distributors are selling OEM software on the internet at a rediculiously cheap rate . These websites which sell the software and carry credit card fascilities are distributing copied "backup version" software . When you by this , you will be given a photo copy of the cd cover with a license number and a printed CD. These CD are all illegal, they will register with microsoft on the activation key , but after 60 days they stop working .... sites are so far : http://www.getsoftnow.biz/cdc/?hicljh http://tanekahaslayer.buye-soft.biz/0/p/ and there are alot of other sites aswell. hope this helps people out there . and notice there is no contact details and address on any of the sites ?????

Marco Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 Thanks for the info! I would never buy soft of a dodgy site like that, but I'm sure loads of people will fall for it. Although very suspicious when it comes without a manual! And they say "This software is recognized as a backup software." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
