Extremely frustrated with rampant illegal Adobe ads on Facebook - Why pay full price?

Hi ​@batt p,

I completely understand why this would feel frustrating, and you’re right to call it out.

A few important clarifications that may help:

• Adobe does not sell discounted lifetime licenses or “too‑good‑to‑be‑true” deals on social media.
• The only safe way to purchase Adobe software is directly from adobe.com or from authorized resellers.
• Ads claiming “full Creative Cloud for a few dollars” are almost always scams and violate Adobe’s terms.

I’d strongly encourage reporting any such ads directly on Facebook as “Scam or misleading”  that genuinely helps reduce their spread.

If you’re ever unsure whether an offer is legitimate, feel free to ask here in the community before purchasing. Many users have avoided bigger problems later by checking first.

Thanks for raising this. These conversations matter, and your feedback is heard.

Adobe has no control over what Meta does or doesn’t do to manage content on their platform. You need to take this up with Meta, the parent company of Facebook & Instagram. 

user’s lose most of their money and gain little.

For one Adobe routinely cracks down on these illegal subscriptions by cancelling them and banning accounts using them. So there is something going on for sure to tackle this
