Is this in response to the email about the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection "on sale" for a ridiculously low price? I know a couple people who received this, me included:Links in the email send you to fundes.edu.co...which redirects to applesdiscount.comWhich claims to be a "Premium Apple Reseller". This is despite the fact that neither that badge or any of their other certifications (MS Gold Certified, Adobe Certified, etc.) actually click through to anywhere. But most importantly: Not only are they not VeriSign certified, their checkout page isn&#x27;t even secure! If you order from these guys, your credit card info will be compromised, wether you receive the product or not. So while this may not exactly be a phishing scam, these points and the liberal abuse of Apple logos on their site certainly points to fraud.Beware!
