MORE EBAY SCAMMERS "COMMEMORATIVE FLYING LOON"
« on: September 24, 2008, 06:29:53 pm »
Look at this auction for a so called RARE 1973 Commemorative $1 note.

This is a direct quote from the seller. "TO COMMEMORATE 30 YEARS OF THE LOON DOLLAR, A SPECIAL LOGO WAS ADD BY A PRIVATE COMPANY IN 2007 ON THE LAST CANADIAN PAPER DOLLAR, ISSUED IN 1973"

  Looks like a scam to me cause it's really a Canada goose not a loon as stated.

This topic has been discussed in depth before with "the gold flag note" here is the link.

Brent even wrote a guide on ebay about this and here is the link.

Paid $2.50 for shipping. Wait till they pay with paypal and file a claim for the shipping number. It is called clawback from PP.
