Windows 10: Lizosoft product keys...

I belong to a Windows 10 group on Facebook and I keep seeing someone posting that "Lizosoft" has product keys very cheaply. The person claims that these are valid, "refurbished" product keys. Are "refurbished" product keys a scam or legitimate?


A Windows 10 Product Key for $12.50? It sounds fishy.


This is their claim...


Reclaimed licenses or refurbished product keys.

Lizosoft offer these product keys taken from discontinued PC units.
They can never depreciate, they are in-fact the same as when they were new.
Although we can legally sell these for the full retail price we choose not to.
We run a large discount of these keys as we believe it allows customers a nice incentive to move from lynx to Windows.
The product keys are sourced from European businesses upgrading there equipment.
As the product keys are tied to the old motherboards they normally die with the hardware.
However this is no longer the case, we can now legally reclaim that license and re-register it to another motherboard one last time.
It can take anywhere from 1-3 weeks to reclaim a product key from a PC unit registered as discontinued.



As a Microsoft re-seller we have authority to refurbish product keys from discontinued and obsolete PC hardware.

I always recommend people purchase their product keys from reputable sources, like a retail store, an online retailer, or Microsoft themselves. I already have Windows 10 Pro on my three units, all procured legitimately and above board. I just didn't know
if this Lizosoft is something I should warn the group administrators about.

I'd never heard of a "refurbished license" or "refurbished product key". It sounded very fishy to me, as does anything that is ridiculously cheap.

In the end, people will take their own chances.

Thanks for the info.

Hi and thanks for reaching out. My name is William. I'm a Windows technical expert. I'll be happy to help you out today.

By the term "discontinued PC units" they are likely referring to OEM product keys. These are often sold at a discount to computer manufactures like Dell, HP, etc. Technically, they injected into the system BIOS and activated by the end consumer upon use. In
general, if they have been activated in the past, they cannot be reused on different hardware.

Regarding their statement: "However this is no longer the case, we can now legally reclaim that license and re-register it to another motherboard one last time." call them up and ask them to provide something from Microsoft that confirms this.

Otherwise, purchase with a credit card, and if it does not activate, contact your credit card merchant and explain to them your were sold a product a false product to get a refund.
