I actually believe that it meets the legal elements of fraud or possibly forgery... selling a forged item with the intent to mislead a purchaser of its identify and/or value... if he was attempting to sell a forged DiVinci painting, he would be going direct to jail once the forgery was proven... but I don't know enough about the collecting business to even make a complaint to law enforcement... being across state lines does make it a Federal case (if it met their dollar value threshold for prosecution)... just my two cents....
