Fake avast web page?

I would like that some one will check this link “http://www.avasthome.info/pt/” that I think is fake and makes you spend money by asking you to send SMS to receive the key to unlock the “free” program! And if you sen the SMS then you receive a message asking you to send another one… (for one message the cost is 2,00 €!!!)

Sorry for my poor english…

There’s a similar link on the fraudulent list already (www.avast-home.info), so it seems quite likely.
I’d ask, however - where exactly does it ask for the SMS? I can’t see anything like that on that page (though I admit I don’t speak the language ;)).
Thanks.

Can’t Alwil sue these guys? Won’t it worth?

It seems AVIRA is facing the very same problem with their Free edition of AntiVir…
