    Anyone use OEM Soft Sales ?

    I just ran across these guys looking to get Adobe CS3. They seem too good to be true.
    I have not ordered from them because I am so gun shy about not getting the "real thing".

    Their home page web site is: http://www.cheapsoftforu.org/

    Has anyone used or heard of them? Are they for real?

    Re: Anyone use OEM Soft Sales ?

    Sounds like a scam site. It has only been up since 7-1-2007. It is listed out of moscow with an IP address out of germany. Most OEM software cannot be downloaded, you would probably get just a pirated version. They might also have the site set up to scam information from customers also. Too good to be true.

    Actually I went on the site and read in the FAQ and can confirm you will receieve pirated software. Phrases such as "the software versions that we sell are OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) which means you will receive the installation downloadable CD images only (they do not come in their original retail packing and do not include the manual)." and "You get the full, downloadable version of your software. When you will download it , your software will be automatically registered to you and you will receive activation key, serial number or CD key necessary to activate your software."

    The part about the how the software is automatically registered for you is the real kicker. Buy the real deal from a reputable place.

    Thanks Storm ...

    I sort of figured it was a rip.

    Guess I'll keep saving my pennies until I can get the real thing.

    Thanks for your help.

    Don't buy it from them. It's scam!!!

    I purchased a software from them on June. It worked for about one month and then I got the message from the software company said the serial number is valid. After that, I cannot get it work anymore. I wouldn't but any software from them again!!!:cryin: :cryin: :cryin:
