What Can Happen When You Counterfeit A Stamp You Have Never Actually Seen

Going back to the OP, is it supposed to be funny just because the genuine stamp is smaller?

What is funny to me is the list of things that show that they really don't understand what they are counterfeiting.

Not getting the size correct is new.

Pricing most stamps at $0.29 each, even when they have a face value of $0.22 or if they are global forever stamps.

Selling US, Canadian and Australian stamps, all on the same page.

Not to mention the funny text on their websites:

They all undergo a "test for authenticity". I love it.

You can't make this stuff up. It actually would be really funny, if it weren't such a sad state of affairs.

This is actually a very good idea. We collectors frequently lament the woes of the USPS, but rarely do anything that could help. Here's an opportunity where we could be of service -- and it might actually be kind of fun. At the very least, we could begin reporting these counterfeit sellers to ebay.

Could someone post some ebay links to lots that clearly appear to be counterfeit postage?

Addendum: Would stamps qualify as US securities? If so, wouldn't the Secret Service be interested?

No. The whole stamp section is only a drop in the bucket to ebay.

I understood that seller performance is tracked independent of what category the listings are in? Is this not correct?

No idea how they do anything.

An expert on counterfeits told me some time ago that ebay has been aggressively shutting down the too good to be true discount postage listings, which is why there are so few nowadays on ebay. The ones that remain that still look suspicious to me also seem to look like they're from stamp dealers, like legitimate ones who would push discount postage every now and then but nowhere near the 40-50% discounts of counterfeiters.
That is why my email spam folder is full of the counterfeiters emails these days.

Alub, so you expanded your US stamp collection with 150 new "stamps" at a discount price. Great move.
Wonder is Mystic buys modern issues from the same companies??

If you search for "stamps" on Facebook marketplace, you will get dozens of results for these stamps. I think each seller works on commission.
