There are also going to be some honest dealers out there who don't know about this and who have purchased these fakes for resale and are going to go about reselling this junk thinking they are original. Better to get this out there. FRANC

I have known of this for several months now, but EVERYONE who had told me details has "sworn me to secrecy". I want to know who made these fakes, who sold them, who re-sold them, what auctions auctioned any, and MOST importantly, see a list of titles and sizes known to have been faked. I understand wanting to "build a case" and wanting to recovery stolen money, but it is likely that new people are being fleeced every day this has gone unreported. For the record, I don't believe I sold even ONE of these fakes, and I certainly never bought any, so I have no dog in this race. I hope that those who do are sure to do all they can to help those who were victimized (and not wait for them to discover it on their own) or this is likely to cripple our hobby.

These have been sold to unsuspecting collectors privately and through auction. I'm amazed that no one has spoken out about this. It would seem like those responsible can continue to fleece collectors if it's not discussed in forums such as this. Does anyone have any information?
