Default Signed T206 Walter Johnson - ebay - Stolen Scan

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1910-T206-Wa...item3cbf87b1fe

Although I haven't been able to go to my bank this morning, I am pretty sure this card still sits safely in my safety deposit box. The scan appears to be stolen from the initial ebay auction of this card a few years ago. My cleaner, better scan, is below.

Anyone want to help me get this one taken down?

I asked him why he listed this and how he bought this card when it's sitting in someone elses safety deposit box. I just don't understand why people do this.

The seller responded to my question by saying that he has owned this card for 10 years and he can take a picture of him holding the card in his hand if need be. Then said he was going to report me to ebay for questioning his item.

Gee Paul, from that last post I think you better check your safe deposit box because the seller says he can provide a picture of him holding the card.

Perhaps Paul (T206Collector) has multiple personalities and doesn't realize that one of his personalities is selling a card that his other personality owns...

What happens if Paul wins the card in auction and his other personality doesn't ship it to him? Who does Paul go to?

Has anyone "reported the item" to ebay via the link provided on the item description page?

I have reported the item as a fraudulent listing. I also emailed the "seller" and informed him of this, and that I was going to local authorities in PA.

I sent seller a message. I am sure he will get many more from other board members. I am always concerned when a seller has one big ticket item and the rest of his items are crap.

Thanks - I'll be saving that nicer scan, just in case my coin-selling business goes belly-up some day.

Sad thing the high bidder will get a copy of a card in a fake holder with a reprinted label. Definitely the holders are different with the same #.

We've never factored in that maybe we knows Johnson. He would probably tell someone he got it signed last week at the philly show.

Can he still be charged with attempt to commit fraud? Clearly he was going to send a fake or make a bogus insurance claim.
