What happened after you received the product? Was it in a box or just a download? The sale price was $2,495 purchasable by PayPal- it was advertised as factory new in the original unopened package and they would help register the program with Autodesk. The vendor I picked had thousands of feedback responses including customers happy with their purchase of AutoCAD 2010.

There are numerous copies of AutoCAD available from eBay, most are obvious copies or just the installation codes- ranging in price from a few dollars to full retail. Can you tell us your story?

Using very sophisticated tools and techniques, it can become difficult for the end user to tell if a license is from a legitimate company or organization or from a phony one. The typical place where the cons operate is on the Internet. AutoCAD is a very popular product and, like every other popular product out there, it can attract the attention of some less than honest people.
