What does help a lot is for the "emptor" to send us (me) the details of the 
website. Not all sales of OOo are necessarily unscrupulous or illegal; what 
counts is making the source available. We list, in fact, many sellers of OOo on 
CDROMs, and in some places, it costs a lot more to download than to buy a 
CDROM. (This indeed leads to the wholesale piracy we see: it's cheaper for many 
to buy an illicitly copied version of, say, MS Office, than to download OOo 
licitly.)
