My biggest concern (I'm sure I've said this before) is
that one of my students comes to me with a lump of
pumice or similar and says "I bought this meteorite
off ebay". If I have to tell them its not a meteorite
because the "5 billionaires" or similar have conned
them. How am I going to feel, having got them
interested?

Have you ever looked at Ken Newton's page on Ebay?
            
_http://members.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewUserPage&userid=magellon_ (http://members.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewUserPage&userid=magellon)
It is very informative, and very entertaining. And he keeps it up to date,
so you should look at it often. I happen to know that he is preparing to add to
 it.
 
And you will find more information about scams being brought to our
attention on the IMCA website, _www.IMCA.cc_ (http://www.IMCA.cc) , click on
"Collecting".

Nail them up, I say! Nail some sense into them!

I know the sellers names of the guys I trust but I
don't want to be advertising them but what else could
I do? (OK, I tell them anyone with an IMCA no. is OK)

In difficulty
