Charity auctions...sadly one of the most abused arenas of offloading fakery. These look bad to me but there is (in my mind) only one arbiter on here and his name is Innuendo.

I agree with the others. I don't think there is any way those were signed by the members of Queen.

Hi Steve, got your message to check this one out. No, it's not genuine. All the best

Nope. Doesn't look good to me.

Damn Charity Auction BS. I wish the authorities would get involved. And...ANYBODY...should get their money back from the charity. They have a right to do their stuff the right way, too. Even if it was 5 years ago. Get your money back, and THEY can track down Charity Auctions or whatever.

I saw this same one on ebay a few days ago.
I messaged the seller after I googled the company that gave its "certificate of authenticity" and it said they were being investigated by the FBI for selling fake merchandise.
About an hour later the item was removed from ebay...

It was similar but not the same one

That one's not similar but is also fake, Daniel. The one you posted looks to be an attempt at a fan club secretarial. Often times scammers tried forging from what they thought was safe- fan club graphs. Good thing for us, fan club graphs were pretty far off from genuine items anyway.
