Nah, too messy  plus I think banksy would have the rat standing on the ground, and a least get it straight. |

Why would someone go around putting up fake banksy stencils?

Why would someone go around putting up fake banksy stencils? I have a drilling rat sprayed onto my wheelybin, just to identify it from others in the street. The stencils are freely available on ebay, as for why would someone put up fake banksy's who knows why, its been going on for years, there was a fake gangster rat on the wall outside andipa 5 years ago. |

Haha fair enough. Reckon I'd still rather see this on the street as a fake then half the rubbish stencils on the walls of Shoreditch at the moment!
