Hi,

I noticed you recently bid on Windows XP on eBay and did not win, so I thought I'd write and let you know I'm selling Windows XP Professional, full version, for only $39 plus $5 for Priority shipping (U.S. dollars).

The version I have is the Corporate Version, and it was never made available to the public. This version will allow Service Pack installs, and comes with a valid Product Key.

It is not a beta, trial version, pre-release or anything like that. And although this is a copied CD and not an official Microsoft disk, it works just as well as what you'd buy in the store. There is only one difference between this and the store-bought disk - this does not have to be activated. It will never expire or stop working. The store-bought version will expire after 30 days of installation unless you activate it. Not so with this version.

Again, it requires no activation to Microsoft, and can be installed on more than one computer (unlike the store-bought version). I accept PayPal and money orders. I am PayPal Verified for over 2 years and have had 100's of Verified buyers, so buy with confidence.

This version can be upgraded, and can use all online services, such as Windows Update, with no restriction whatsoever.

This is Windows XP Professional, Full 2002 Version, and as such, it can be used to upgrade from an existing operating system, or it can also be used to perform a "clean" installation on a blank hard drive.

You simply cannot beat this. This would cost you $299 plus tax in the store, and you can only install the store-bought version on one computer, due to the Microsoft activation requirement. The store-bought version has absolutely NO advantage over this version.

If you are interested, just let me know. Otherwise, I wish you the best anyway.

Hope to hear from you soon!!



p.s. - I also have Office XP Pro, XP Plus, and many other programs available.

Uhm he is obviously talking about the warez version and he probably has the MS keygen which actually generates valid keys. You can use these keys and activate the program as well. I would report him to ebay for selling warez, as that is what he is doing. That is pretty ridiculous that he would actually go out and e-mail you like that. I wonder though how many people have actually fallen victim to his scam. That is sad. He's probably a under aged kid with no job.
 
I was curious and checked him out on Ebay. They guy just registered 3 days ago and has a rating of 2, he bought two wholesale lists!
 
Didn't you people read his email? He said that it was a corporate copy, not a warez copy. He probably works for a large corporation and got tired of taking home pens and post-it notes, so he took this instead. When he got it home he decided to try to make some money from it. The code is probably good, it just belongs to G.M. or Ford or some other major company.

I hope you're kidding.
 
Well if you do decide to get him busted by the bsa, contact the bsa first. Then they can tell you to buy it so they can get his address. Then you'll get busted for buying it because it was really a bsa sting, when you go to court the bsa can look like asses for telling you to buy it and then busting you for it. 😛

Well he says it'll allow service pack installs, so at least you know he's not giving you the FCKGW key. 😀

well...there is a key generator out there to generate valid winxp(all version) keys. the name of the keygen is called "bluelist" (you can try to google that)
also a changer to let you change the FCKGW key.

the corp version is most pirated version. maybe you can say corp version = pirated version. Most of the warez'ers use that.

Read a bit more carefully.

And although this is a copied CD and not an official Microsoft disk, it works just as well as what you'd buy in the store
