Posted March 9, 2017 Please be aware of scam software vendors who do not have a phone number or anyway to contact them except via email. I purchase Microsoft Office via web and was supposed to have a license download. This never happened! There is no license key for these downloads. This is a scam. When I asked for a phone number contact there were crickets. When I asked for a refund there was a nasty response. Buyer beware https://www.istarsoftware.com. They are not legitimate.

Posted March 9, 2017 I'm sorry to here you were scammed, but the number one way to avoid these kind of scams is to purchase from authorized retailers, like Microsoft themselves. Purchasing from any 3rd party (Reddit, other websites, etc) all carry the risk of scams. ******If you paste in text into your post, please click the "remove formatting" button for night theme users.****** CPU- Intel 6700k OC to 4.69 Ghz GPU- NVidia Geforce GTX 970 (MSI) RAM- 16gb DDR4 2400 SSD-2x500gb samsung 850 EVO(SATA) Raid 0 HDD- 2tb Seagate Case- H440 Red w/ custom lighting Motherboard - MSI Z170 Gaming A OS- Windows 10 Mouse- Razer Naga Epic Chroma, Final Mouse 2016 turney proKeyboard- Corsair k70 Cherry MX brown Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/749924-istarsoftwarecom/#findComment-9493257 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best way to not get scammed is to but from certified resellers, or just do a quick review search to see if they are ligitimate. I like Computer Stuffs.
