Where do people usually sell pirated software? I mean, any particular forums that allow this sort of thing? I know many pirates sell them on their own sites but does anyone know of an active community that does this?

eBay.

people who are part of an 'active community' surrounding piracy already know how to get this stuff themselves, it's as easy as downloading legal software.

a large amount of the software for sale cheaply on ebay is fake, there's more money to be made from passing pirated software off as original than selling pirated software as pirated software.

since there are hundreds of forums where people upload illegal software, there's little use for the same but for which you have to pay - if you were hoping to make millions from selling software you downloaded you're in the wrong game.

He would be up for Federal charges if caught. That could mean doing some serious time! If he is shipping then its going to be interstate commerce and involve the Postal Inspector, Then he would also be charged with felony Federal Fraud charges, He could easily get hitched with Federal money laundering charges, That would mean his house, car, bank account, everything could be seized by the Government. If others are involved or know about the crime then there could also be conspiracy which adds an automatic 10 years onto the sentence in Federal court.

You know... that is illegal. I do not think anyone will put that on an open forum where they could be found out.
