Nope.  I just ordered and received a 1 user Dev and 5 user RT for Windows
for one of my customers.  It came in as 5.0.14 as expected.  We have quite a
few filePro installations and have not received an invoice for 5.6.  That
sounds bizarre.  Maybe someone got fP Tech's customer list and is sending
fake invoices in hopes someone will fall for it and send money.
