Default Is Euro Software legit for MS Office purchase?

I found a website that is offering downloads of MS Office Pro 2007 for only
$69.95. (and similarly low prices on other products) Is this legitimate?
Will I have a valid, supported version if I buy this? Or is this some kind
of scam? Their address is NYC, but their grammar is not quite American. The
web site is: http://software-4-you.com/item/?id=1965

I've been out of work for a while and can use the low price, but I don't
want to end up with pirated software or someone stealing my identity.

No it is not legit. You need to buy from Microsoft Website or from
Amazon. all others are dodgy and they are selling dodgy software.

Remember what your parents told you, if is sounds too good to be true, it
probably is. No legitiamte sites except for those authorized by Microsoft
(Digital River, Dell, Etc.) offer software for download, and especially =
for that sort of price. Trust your instincts.

If you can't afford MS Office, then use Open Office. O any older version of
Office you may own.
