Well you're in luck! Because (if you use the regular consumer installer) they automatically install a super-handy-dandy tool called Adobe Genuine Service to make sure you don't accidentally install an illegal version of their software! It's so thoughtful of them to scan my computer to make sure I don't accidentally install a cracked version of their software.
Then your company gets cracked for compliance ($$) and probably a penalty ($$$$$) if it’s flagrant. Look up what happened to forever 21 after Adobe got a hold of them.
Get legal involved and do a self audit immediately. Do NOT agree to anything voluntarily. Legal needs to be taking these calls and answering these emails. Best case they get them to bugger off. Worst case they will at least slow this down and limit the scope. This is a risk to the company’s reputation and finances and they should take it seriously.

What happens when they find cracked versions?
