The Federation Against Software Theft (FAST) has issued a Christmas warning to consumers to be on their guard for illegal software products when buying online.
Geoff Webster, CEO of FAST, said the Internet offers a growing opportunity for criminal activity with many software pirates setting up spoof Web sites offering illegal film, music and software products.
Webster urged consumers to use FAST's Copyright Hotline to validate the authenticity of products.
Consumers can use the hotline to report incidents of software piracy or to get information on how to ensure the product is not illegal.
Users can call the Copyright Hotline on 0845 6034567.
