Bought an Office key from Digital license .NL are they legit?possible scam

Hi ,

I am posting on behalf of a friend .

She purchased a key for Microsoft office from a crowd called Digital license.NL.

https://www.digitallicense.nl/

They emailed her the key but said it was for a different version of office (office pro instead of home and student ) and instructed her to delete her version of office before downloading office pro through the link ;

https://setup.office.com

She started getting paranoid and did some googling and it seems that setup.office.com is associated with some scams where remote access to your pc is asked for .


Has anyone used digital license before ? are they legit ,

Is setup.office.com a microsoft site ? Is there an way to really know ?

Thanks

Perfectly legit and thats the official Microsoft office website link.

But on a side note, why anyone would pay that kind of money is beyond me when theres perfectly good alternatives for free.

Could it have been gotten for free ?can you enlighten ?

Could you recommend some alternatives ? do you mean alternatives to Microsoft office or to that website ?

He means alternative programs can be used for free, which you can find with a simple "programs similar to Microsoft office that are free" Even google docs is a good alternative. Website looks to be legit. Id say just contact them.
