Despite our repeated warnings to only do business directly with Adobe or Adobe authorized re-sellers, more people are getting scammed every day by Adobe impostors and eBay software pirates. I was just contacted by another product user who bought CS6 from a fake Adobe scammer using adobe care @ OUTLOOK . COM as their e-mail which is totally bogus.

RED FLAG #1 Adobe staff will never contact you from OUTLOOK . COM.

RED FLAG #2 Adobe staff will never reach out to you by Skype.

RED FLAG #3 Adobe stopped making and selling Creative Suite in 2017. It's not legally sold by any vendor, retailer or country anymore. If someone offers to sell you a new Creative Suite, run away.

Please be safe and use good judgement. If something sounds too good to be true, it's usually a scam.
