I'm not going to buy it, but some unlucky person did buy it. Is this a fake?

Most definitely a fake, and one of the worst ones I've seen in a while.

The buyer paid over $700 for this piece of paper. I've seen 100's of real PSA authenticated MJ autographs and I agree, this doesn't remotely look like MJ's autograph. I just can't stand by and watch someone get ripped off this badly, so, I reported it to ebay hopefully BEFORE the buyer makes payment. I also sent the seller a message asking him to spare the buyer a major chunk of hard earned money. I wasn't ugly about it at all. Just matter of fact.

You really did a very good job! I hope more people can do the same thing to prevent those bad sellers from faking.
Best regards,

Unfortunately, the buyer has already paid and the seller has already shipped. I couldn't let the buyer know anything until the auction was over because the name of the buyer is not shown unless and until the buyer leaves feedback. This particular buyer left feedback BEFORE the seller even shipped the item! The buyer is VERY upset about getting ripped off $710 and is panicing and asking me what to do. I told him that if it were me, I would contact the seller, then ebay, then paypal. He may have to prove that it's fake before he can take legal action such as contacting the seller's local police department. This is really sad....

That is 100% fake. Many people on ebay fake his auto and sell it for money.
