I received word from a Moderator that Intuit is investigating that company as an unauthorized retailer.   You should purchase only from an authorized retailer of legitimate Intuit products, such as directly from the TurboTax website or from authorized retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, Staples, Office Depot, Costco, Sams, Walmart, Target, etc.  Very few retailers are authorized for TurboTax download products.

I'm asking TurboTax if that is a legitimate website.  I'm suspicious that it might not be and could be pirated software.  When I look for underlying info it, it is hosted in the Netherlands and is 2 months old.     I'll report back.

In the meantime, do not click on any links or download anything.

There are very few authorized retailers that sell legitimate downloads, and they are normally big well-known ones like Amazon, Best Buy, Office Depot, Staples, etc.
