Fake SS Document

[Tom Yanacek]

Hello to all,

Hope no one falls for this fake document for the EK1 Spange. I just spotted this piece of garbage up on ebay.

Best regards,
Tom

Are we really supposed to believe that this is the signature of Felix Steiner????

Besides the fake signature, Steiner was not promoted to SS-Obergruppenführer until July 1, 1943.

And where is the umlaut above the letter "u" in the word "führer"??????

Fake eagle ink stamp too.

For comparison, an authentic signature of Felix Steiner:

What the hell is SS-Schütze Rgt. 5 supposed to be? :P Some fakers seams to lack the basic knowledge on german order of battle.

... and they seem to lack basic knowledge on German language and forgot the umlaut of "Führer" twice.

pathetic isn't it? It's the kind of thing that shouldn't fool anyone in today's internet age.

Another one of these thin black pen signed fakes, we've seen a few in recent years, other examples are in the fakes gallery.
