Amazing Spider-Man Collecting Thread!
mosconi replied to Point Five's topic in Silver Age Comic Books
It's the first appearance of the romping Kangaroo, how could you go wrong! -
If CGC can gather the evidence that the store owner received monetary compensation from the millions of dollars of scam slabs over the years from Zanello, then the benefit of doubt will be out the window. A documented money trail/money transfers from scammer to store owner would be a starting point to investigate. I'm no skilled detective, but at this point we can only speculate what kind of financial shenanigans were going on between them
-
Yeah, I'm sure the store owner will try to plead total ignorance to the scammers activities to save his business. If they can prove he was receiving monetary gains from these slab sales, then he may become a litigant as well. Anyone believe this guy had no idea with what was going on behind the scenes, with hundreds if not thousands of submissions going through his company?
-
Is the store owner named in this lawsuit? Haven't heard much about him, but it looks like he was very well acquainted with Zanello, allowed complete misuse of his dealer account, and also allowed this scammer to sell his fraudulent slabs by setting up with his company at cons and who knows what else Does any liability fall at his doorstep?

Never noticed that, good eye! -
That's a good question. Why would they want to let out this further embarrassment and have a whole new thread on their ineffective/incompetent security system? There may be more details to come forth
-
I'm going to salute CGC for prosecuting these two scumbags. They could have kept it out of the public eye and never brought forth any charges. Most companies would have never let this out. That's the first step which I commend them. But the next and biggest step is reevaluating and addressing all of the weaknesses in their security model and methods. Whatever security system they are implementing at their facility is not working. How do we know there are not more graders and receivers doing the same fraudulent activities but haven't been caught yet. They need to communicate to the public in a clear message what steps they are taking to solve these security shortcomings to avoid future scams

Without a clear explanation of their security procedures, it almost feels like books were being stacked on shelves in some hallway or back room with graders coming and going and picking up whatever books they felt like grading that day. Who knows what type of security checks were in place at that time

Anyone know if this is a Green River copy?

Beautiful book! The vibrant color on these issues is a pleasure to behold -
Yeah, he won't be having a good time in prison if the charges are true and on his paperwork. What a complete mess. Just return the books you have and stop the excuses
