<p>Law enforcement rarely does anything in autographs unfortunately. That's why the autograph field is inundated with vile garbage criminals.</p>
<p>Attorneys are very expensive. There's a possibility of a class action lawsuit, if you're a victim of fraud on Bonanza, and you might find an attorney to take it on contingency. I may be able to assist there but it's not easy.</p>

<p>You can also report sellers of forgeries to Bonanza. Since there are a lot of copies of the same autograph, that makes it easier. Not that it's required, but they have terms and conditions that don't allow sales of counterfeit items:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Fake, imitation or knock-off items</strong><ul>
<li>Material that infringes <a href="https://support.bonanza.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001173551-Copyright-and-Intellectual-Property-Policy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Copyright and Intellectual Property</a>, including but not limited to software or other digital goods you are not authorized to sell, warez, bootlegs (without consent of the brand)</li>
<li>Counterfeit stamps and coins</li>
<li>Products or services identified by Bonanza and/or government agencies to have a high likelihood of being fraudulent</li>
<li>Fake or false documents such as diplomas, custom or pre-written essays, invalid click or "ad spam" products</li>
</ul>
</li>

<p>That's the one, Tim. The online FBI Fraud complaint form, IC3. That'll get the ball rolling. Report should be written with taking into consideration that the one reading it knows little about the nuts and bolts of authentication or the hobby as a whole. Simple explanation is key. Hopefully, that will get it to someone a little more knowledgeable with the nomenclature and workings of autograph collecting which will lead to a more detailed discussion.</p>

<p>My suggestion is to compose a very concise report on this, assuming that before it would ever be passed along to an autograph analyst, layman will be reading your report, and forward it to the offices of:</p>
<p>1) your state Attorney General</p>
<p>2) the seller's state Attorney General</p>
<p>3) your local DA</p>
<p>4) the seller's local DA</p>
<p>Also file the same report for:</p>
<p>The FBI mail fraud website page.</p>
