I'm still super curious. It's a well known company that is doing super well. I had the interview with some really smart people with amazing resumes. The low ball explanation makes sense. Maybe they were just testing me. I live in Argentina where 45k would be considered an ok salary. Lot of people work for less than that. But if you know your value and work with international companies you can get much more than that.

I would tend to agree with the advice given so far that you should bail on the well-known company, but you also need to tell them directly why it is that you are no longer interested in their offer. It is possible, but unlikely, that they will adjust the offer, but they need to know that they made a mistake so that they can correct in the future.
