Does this take the biscuit, or what? If JK Rowling wanted to action electronic versions of the Harry Potter books for charity on EBay, wouldn't she do it herself?

How does EBay believe this?
How does anyone believe this?
Moreover, does anyone seriously believe that this eBayer will truly divert money, once PayPal has credited most of it to his account, and give to charity?

A thief is thief, I guess. This is not the only scam for Haiti relief, as sad as it is that someone would use that disaster to steal from people.
I don't think ebay believes any of these tales. Joe Schmo has copyright on Rowlings' stuff? But no one in authority calls them on it, so they close their eyes all the way to the bank.
Talk about cheeky. Some of these people are pretty nervy when it comes to claiming property they're clearly stealing.
And then to do it in the name of charity. Hell is gonna get a couple of new residents sooner or later.
Hi...thanks for commenting about the pirates. I'll check it out.
