Hi there, I'm Mohit and I do not use any of the CorelDraw products professionally or personally, however, I got a call from Corel India from number +91-22-40586529, a person named Sarita Singh, claiming that I or my team are using CorelDraw software without a valid license. Even after I mentioned that we DO NOT use any of the Coral products, they threatened me that they will take certain actions which I may not like.
Following this, I got an email from them:
Dear Sir,
Greetings from Corel Corporation!!!
My name is Sarita Singh, representative of Corel Corporation in India, as part of compliance team that deals with software legalisation of Corel products used in India.
Corel Corporation is a leading software developer based out of Canada with major offices in United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Taiwan, China and Japan. Corel is copyright owner of various products including but not limited to CorelDRAW Graphic Suite, Painter, Particle Shop, CorelDRAW Technical Suite, Paint Shop Pro, Video Studio, PDF Fusion, WordPerfect Office, WinZip etc.
This mail is with regards to the installations / instances of propriety software of Corel Corporation installed / used in your organization. We seek your kind co-operation to help us with the license details of CorelDRAW Graphic Suite software you have procured in the past along with serial keys & invoice details. Technically each installation/instance must be backed with lawfully acquired right to use for each product/s as per Corel’s licensing policy.
Your revert will also help us to validate your Genuine Licenses procured and address the gap in terms of licenses. As you may experience Genuine License do boost over productivity also provides access to technical support team to solve your queries. It mitigates risk on your business, which is responsible towards your customers. The use and installation of legal software tends to be easier and less risky regarding the IT security & you act in accordance with law.
We therefore request your support to get licenses regularized
Please feel free to revert back for any further clarifications or details.
Please help me and if it is a fraud, which seems to be, as I can see previously lodged cyber complaints about fake recruitments and fake threat calls similar to mine.
