I sold a signed £5 note on eBay yesterday here is my listing
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/230840333747?ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1559.l2649#ht_500wt_922


About twenty mins ago my brother sent this too me
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271044284239?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649#ht_500wt_922

Friggin identical, even down to the creases, i can even work out the serial numbers, it's sitting on my lap here so it ain't his?

Does anybody know the seller, I've reported it

Just don't bid on it people, it's a fake or fraudulent listing for sure

[mcbatholith]

i think looking at his pic it looks quite clearly Photoshoped as the shadows don't look right...
and it doesn't look like it sits properly on the background

He actually went to a bit more trouble than the usual eBay photo-thief. I wonder if he's harvested the other pics he's using.

Well spotted though.

Never seen him before in my llife, hope nobody gets diddled though.

Dear g_string2010,

Hi there

Could you please tell me the serial number of the five pound note,
As this looks exactly the same as the note I have sitting in my house and sold yesterday on eBay, even down to the creases

I am going to report this listing as fraud if you can't provide the serial number
I can practically see it anyway please confirm this

Many thanks

Dear theanimalbus!,

Hi, not sure what your suggesting here? That I'm reselling yours or something? You wasting my time here. I'll get you a serial number of every note in my house if you want it's not evidence of anything is it? If you want it; bid if you don't report it as fraudulent it makes no difference to me I have it here and there are photos of me meeting him for god sake!. If you've sold one well done, I saw two others sell yesterday. I hope you'll be asking them for serials too! Hilarious.

Dear g_string2010,

Then give me the serial number dude as you have no reason to hide it from me,
Every single crease in that note matches mine I sold yesterday, it's still sitting in my house
Check my items for sale and click on completed listings, then tell otherwise !!!!!!!?

Every single marker pen line on your note matches mine, tell me that is possible with the creases and shadows behind the note

I will stand here till I'm blue in the face, dude please check your serial number and give it to me
You have no reason not to, if your right

Dear theanimalbus!,

Hi mate I took it off eBay as some guy just offered me a fortune off eBay for it! I couldn't afford to buy it back now if I wanted to!
He said he saw me on a forum. Thanks for reporting me on there and letting people stick my photo up! Helped me sell it quicker haha! Good work.

I might have been born yesterday, but I've been up all night studying !!!!!!!!!!

What a wally lol !!!!!!!!!

[chaturz]

Looks like theyve ended the listing! Hmmmmm

[Cornish Crayon]

Dear theanimalbus!,

Do you want another photo of me and a few more quotes for your forum haha. Funny viewing. Keep it coming!

- g_string2010


Your digging your own hole here dude

You could always admit you got caught out and slope of quietly or you could always come on the forum directly and explain your actions

[chaturz]

Or just report the messages to eBay. Pretty sure eBay frown upon sales outside eBay to avoid fees! They'll have a lot to answer for!

You can even tell its the same serial number. Some people have no shame!!!!!
