Fraud?

They seem legit with the whole site but the only reason I dont think they are is they are wayyyyy to fancy to not have a contact number to call that is what weirds me out. I would send them an email about why there prices are so low on their contact us page and see how the email comes back .. if it looks like an automated email and says something like Hello Rob Skull, and it takes your first and last name and like has it bolded or underlined or anything special it is most likely fraud... on the other hand I know adobe themselves take prices down that low when you are a student or teacher.

and what is even more weird, if you click on a product and scroll to the bottom, all of them say they were added to their catalog June 28th which wasnt even 2 weeks ago... Just seems really suspecious like quick way to pop up a site steal some cash and then vanish... I dont know... If you know a student you can purchase it legit through adobe for like only 300$

Its a fraud. Someone else got the info for the site and it was just set-up from China on June 25th, 2010. It is on Godaddy's server.
