I just heard from eBay's fraud department that "court-approved forensic document examiners" Christopher Morales and Nicholas Burzyk have been banned by eBay!

Nothing offered with their authentication opinions is allowed, and will be removed—either automatically or upon notification.

Their names will be published on eBay's list of banned authenticators within the next two weeks—their Web department has a backlog of work, so it takes some time.

If you aren't familiar with Morales, read my article, Christopher Morales: The Forger's Best Friend

Thank you eBay!!!
