"... Of course, I was already well aware of JKR's Army and I am so
very grateful for what you've done. In highlighting the seamier side
of the forgery business, which ranges from the disappointed fan, who
has parted from hard-earned cash, right through the nefarious
criminal trades 'knock-offs' sometimes finance, you have done such
an incredible thing. Anyway... my feelings on opening your letter
and package were identical to those of Dumbledore's, when he found
out he had his own underground army." J.K. Rowling |

Forgery Alert - When
Harry Potter books or movies are released, there is a lot more
opportunity for forgers to make money and illicit activity increases
significantly. Please be extra vigilant when making purchases
this summer. Remember, we're here to help and can screen items
before you purchase or facilitate a refund if your purchase is not
as-advertised. (July, 2009) Constant Vigilance! |

| Scrapbook Project - During our last forgery awareness contest, we gave everyone who entered an opportunity to leave a message for J.K. Rowling. Fans left over 8,000 fantastic messages. We assembled a sampling of 120 of them into a scrap book and sent it (and a flash drive containing all the messages) to Ms. Rowling. We're very glad to report that she received the book and was thrilled with it! Thanks to everyone who submitted a message. They were a joy to read and we are honored to have been able to pass them on for you. (May 2009) | |
| Help Clean-up eBay! - If you see a book or other item which is supposedly signed by J.K. Rowling on eBay, and you suspect a forgery, you can report it to Bruce Howard at bookbidbooks@aol.com. He'll check out the auction and request that it be pulled if he agrees that it is for a forged item. Please note that this covers JKR's signature only; cast signatures are not covered at this time. | |
