Fraud, no doubt, but hard to prove and far worse happens everyday on BaT and other platforms. Some sellers get away with murder. I saw a 1996 turbo S spec 993TT which was at most a $150k car at the time sold by Mr. 12 o'clock as a real turbo S for $450k and the he flagrantly lied his arse off. He still got away with it somehow. Having non original parts with proper date stamps is nothing in comparison.

I can't tell you how many RSA's I know that were track cars their entire life and sold on BaT as never being tracked. Crazy what greed and money will do.
