Do you mean it is Brian Mallyon from Calgary Canada?.

Couple more things if this is the guy...

I believe Brian Mallyon is an NCRS Member in good standing..

I looked at some of his auction history a few years back and included was his purchasing of old paper w/ correct water marks etc..

Lots of great comments here as usual but what can we do?.

No, Pete. I meant that the guy with the Craigslist ads is the guy on eBay with the user ID vin-number-aged. We sent him an email pretending to be interested and he indicated he was located in Florida. He has many auctions running on Ebay currently:

What is as scary as this guys obvious intent to assist in defrauding people, is reading his eBay feedback showing how happy his customers are with his product, and knowing what may happen afterwords.

Oh yeah...created just as a "Novelty for show only,NOT OFFICIAL".

Sorry to rant...this just hits a nerve with me.

What you/WE as a group or in mass effort can do to voice our opinion.

Log onto Ebay and report his items and any other like items from other sellers. Use one of the counterfeit options for the report basis. If enough reports are generated maybe Ebay will get the hint and pull the auctions.

Loosely interpreted he is selling the intent to deceive with his “reproduction” documentation that will be “Just in time for that next car show”.
IMHO intent to deceive is present even if the intent to commit fraud is not.


From Wikipedia:
[edit] Counterfeiting of documents
Main article: Forgery
Forgery is the process of making or adapting documents with the intention to deceive. It is a form of fraud, and is often a key technique in the execution of identity theft. Uttering and publishing is a term in United States law for the forgery of non-official documents, such as a trucking company's time and weight logs.
Questioned document examination is a scientific process for investigating many aspects of various documents, and is often used to examine the provenance and verity of a suspected forgery. Security printing is a printing industry specialty, focused on creating documents which are difficult or impossible to forge.

Rope + tree + counterfieter = happier hobby
