From that day on, Alex avoided Facebook license key posts and warned his friends: “The real price of a ‘free key’ is your security.”

One evening, while scrolling through Facebook, he saw a post in a large tech group. It read: “Genuine ESET Smart Security Premium License Key – 2027 expiry. I bought an extra.
