Is this Genuine?

RE: BitDefender Antivirus Plus 2012: 365 day license giveaway

Im confused...... The source link threads say that this activation code is for Bitdefender Antivirus 2012.Also no explanation as to how this 2 year 677 day activation came about,keygen ? The original post says they were recieved in a emailed newsletter 3 codes to share and that they are for Bitdefeder Antivirus Plus 2013.Which the way I would see it that these 3 codes were meant to share with 3 friends.Then some BIS codes mixed in there.I would imagine if everyone is using this activation code it will sooner or later be blacklisted. That is the 677 day code.

Maybe I am looking at it wrong but I dont see the giveaway here.I have some other things I am working on or I would try it,but from the threads @ nsane it looks as though it appears to work.

I wondered too, but Neowin who are sticklers at keeping things above board are fine with it

I see that it says "code may give you 677 days" and the other one with 3 codes is for 1 year but I assume that from the original poster @ nsane that they were 3 codes to share.I dont know if that means share with 3 friends or share with the world.I am not familiar enough with Bitdefender to know if they Blacklist keys or not. I am not saying they arent valid or below the board just that I dont see it as a giveaway.They also have a 30 day shelf life,but from when did it start?

Well I activated the 365 day key first, then found the 677 day key and used that on the same AV install and it was happy to reactivate it

I'm not sure if they will blacklist either but for such a huge number of people using the keys and only a small number of keys going around, you'd think the servers would have blocked them by now if they were going to

Its possible if they are promoting their AV/ISS by sending out keys in emails, then they may have just mass emailed the same few keys to everyone, so if that is the case, they will probably not be blacklisted.

Might very well be mass emailed.If it works and they dont meet an untimely death that's great.

It works for me, I have it installed in VMware and I have 676 days left

Which version exactly? BitDefender Internet Security 2013 or just the BitDefender Antivirus Plus 2013 version?

 

[Plexx]

RE: BitDefender Antivirus Plus 2012: 365 day license giveaway

This key is for version 2012 of AV initially: 0GPPDC3 and that's the one that gives 676 days. Just tested before updates crashed everything (ISP issues)

the other keys listed on the original source is for 365 days for AV 2013.

The picture itself of OP is incorrect. It is BD AV not IS. There are however 2 IS keys on other posts on same source thread.

You are right,thanks for the information.

RE: BitDefender AntiVirus Plus 2013: 677 Day License Giveaway

Yep, just booted up and received an invalid key message for the 677 day key

Entered one of the 365 day keys and it was valid again

RE: BitDefender AntiVirus Plus 2013: 677 Day License Giveaway

How is this a giveaway, again? Those are public known keys now and are going to be blacklisted any time soon.

RE: BitDefender AntiVirus Plus 2013: 677 Day License Giveaway

Once I have asked them licenses for giveaway and they said they cannot offer free licenses ( if I remember correctly they are the only who rejected me for license) and there licenses are found in tons on websites without proper info.
Me and bitdefender had never been friend

Here is what the Bitdefender developers had to say:

Hello,

The license is/was legit. Unfortunately it was handed out to a user for a special promotion. Thanks for bringing it to our notice. The license is invalidated as of now.

Best,

RE: BitDefender AntiVirus Plus 2013: 677 Day License Giveaway

I thought that as soon as they realized a license with that expiration is floating around that sooner or later the are going to kill it.The problem is every site I looked at had it posted,if you want something good to last you sometimes have to keep a lid on it and share among certain people.As for the other 3 posted I am sure they will be axed too.I just didnt see the giveaway in all this and they just had a big giveaway for 1 year of BIS 2013.

Was that just for the 677 day key ?

You didn't give them the 1 year keys too did you ?

I dont know if anyone gave them any keys.If people wanted these to last they shouldnt post them all over the place,and probably not here either.

Especially since a member is from Bitdefender

Hi Nomad,


We're very to hear about your issues with Bitdefender. To my knowledge, we don't have any reported slowdown issues. Most probably, the cause of the issue is particular, local based. In order to proper investigate the issue, i will kindly ask you to contact us at bitsy@bitdefender.com.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Well... a member who 'claims' to be from BD

But for them to reply specifically about 'a license' and block it, then a key must have been provided in order for them to have any idea which license was being questioned

And originally I was under the impression this was a valid giveaway, and considering MWT has a giveaway section......

True, but I only questioned due to one of the sources.
