    Hi Experts/Oldies

    Need Advice -

    If a plugin website has some Glitch and Im able to officially buy/download (for free) multiple plugins from their website

    Then later install those on iLok machine

    Can the company still do something later? or would be fair/wise enough to just inform them about error
    (they will surely call back plugins)

    PS - Its their mistake or glitch, not mine
    PSS - I also already had few discounted/bought plugins from them

    Thanks

    It's best to contact a lawyer before doing anything. Lawyer's advice.

    Admin accounts have access to "pluck" or "drop" keys in/out of your account. So technically yes, they could revoke them, but it's a question of them noticing that you got something for free that you were supposed to pay for — so don't give them any reason to review your account. If they notice an influx of invoices with $0 purchase total, they will surely look into the situation.

    If possible, purchase something with the "free" item so that it isn't obvious at a glance of your invoice, and place the keys onto a physical iLok USB key, which might help prevent it from being revoked.

    Hello @MusicBoy123, just install them and see if they work. It's not your job to fix other people's mistakes.

    Honestly, its just 1 invoice (with multi plugins) - tho I get a feeling that they will Notice it
    Well, legally its their fault I dint hack anything or something LOL - its like a bug and I used it
    They can still drop iLok machine licenses ? :| That's weird
