Default Is this planned?

So I was looking at 52 Topps on ebay and came across this Mantle:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1952-Topps-M...3D281926611053

It got me thinking. Is it possible the seller makes a totally fake Mantle, I mean not even close using maybe a printer and gluing a printed copy on some stock and then spends $10 and submits to PSA knowing he is going to get a questionable authentic flip. That is his objective simply get the flip. He then lists on ebay thinking given the price of a true authentic 52 Mantle at say 5K that someone will buy it for a decent price with the hopes they can submit to say SGC and possibly get that authentic grade. The potential buyers spend say $100+ to possibly make $5000. If so its an ingenious plan. He doesnt even have to lie in the listing just show it was returned as questionable.

The bids are already over $100.

What do you think is it plausible? Probable?

The seller even responds to a question that states its fake and the seller states he never said it was real.

BTW if that is his plan it is ingenious but it's a dick move.
