They don't send you a serial. They send you an email with a link. You have to open the app and it will tell you your computer number. Copy that number, then click the link in the email. Paste it into the appropriate box on the website and it will generate a serial for you. No need for anything nefarious.
Ditto no email here either despite saying it would be emailed within 48 hours.
by the way did anyone bother looking in the MacHeist forum? I found this answer from JohnRed

KavaSoft is still generating the serial codes. It's taking a lot longer than expected because we got a lot more people to sign-up for the giving tree than we planned this year. We knocked their server out a bunch of times already.
There's a good chance that things will have a few more hitches, so if you don't get your code within a few days, report back here and we'll get it regenerated.
Thanks for your patience. It'll be worth the wait because it's a great game.
P.S. I'm still waiting for my code, too... no preferential treatment.

Last time I checked, MacHeist did have it's own forum. You know, for problems with MacHeist.
