Is this a scam on Amazon?

Was looking for a good price for MalwareBytes and found this when i searched Amazon. I was under the belief that Pro was no longer available? see this link:

Sold by Amazon Digital Services, Inc. Additional taxes may apply. By placing your order, you agree to our Terms of Use. Game and software downloads are non-returnable and non-refundable after purchase.

Note: Currently, this item is available only to customers located in the United States and who have a U.S. billing address.

 

Only the Malwarebytes marketing team staff can say for sure, but it appears to be legit.

Amazon is one of a few reputable resellers/vendors that may still have a limited number of 1-PC, consumer, lifetime licenses.

 

Note: the offer does not include physical media (which you don't need anyway).

Be sure to keep electronic and paper copies of all the receipts and transaction info, just for safe-keeping.

(If you ever need to reinstall or transfer the license to a different system, you'll need the license ID and key to do so.)

 

Then, just follow the steps in these helpful topics with videos here:

How do I install Malwarebytes Anti-Malware?

How do I activate Malwarebytes Anti-Malware?

Sounds like a plan.

 

Feel free to post back and let us know how it goes.

Bought, installed and activated. But dont see anything that shows an expiration date. Just has todays date activated and state  = Licensed?

[daledoc1]

Excellent!

 

There is no expiration date for a consumer, 1-PC lifetime license.

Such a license can be activated on only 1 PC at a time, but it can be transferred to a different computer in the same household.

If the ribbon at the very top of the MBAM GUI/dashboard says "Premium" and if you purchased a 1-PC lifetime license, then you ought to be just fine.

 

Yes, you are correct.

Unfortunately, the current program GUI/dashboard doesn't specify if a Premium license is the "lifetime" version (no expiration date) or the "subscription" version (with an expiration date).

 

You should be fine, but if you want to check to be sure, you can run this tool and then post back with its log attached to your next reply:

 

Please create an mbam-check log:

• Download mbam-check.exe from here and save it to your desktop
• Double-click on mbam-check.exe to run it, it should then open a log file
• Please do not copy and paste the entire contents of the log into your next post, instead please attach the log CheckResults.txt file which should now be located on your desktop to your next post.
• Click on the More Reply Options button, then click on the Browse button to locate your log then click the Attach button to attach the log to your post

Thanks,
