Is this legit? It sounds like someone selling keys from a keygen.

Probably Volume Licensing where they will "generate" a key for you from their account access on MSDN.

I thought that VLK keys were shared across an organization. Eg. not unique keys for each machine


Anyways, I'm very intrigued by the possibility that someone cracked MS's key scheme.

With vista they changed it up a bit. There are now 2 key types. MAK keys have to be manually activated after a system is installed\imaged. This also has a limited number of activations.

Then there is KMS which doesnt require the unique key\activation process but you have to run a activation server that your workstations need to hit periodically to remain active.

KMS
MAK
 
Save your $20. Microsoft's lawyers are going to shut these folks down in a matter of days -- then go through their records and track the buyers.
 
I would imgaine they have MSDN subscription.

I have access it to at work and can generate keys from the MSDN subsriber downloads for any OS m$ provides.

I would never risk my job or MSDN access for 20$ though.
 
here's the first tip to say that it's fraud:

What Payment Methods We Accept:

Alertpay
Money order ( U.S.A Only)
Bank Transfers (Bank Of America Only)
Western Union
MoneyGram
Liberty Reserve

Not to mention it says right at the top of the craigslist page to avoid such things.

BTW, I flagged it.
