Default The latest autograph scam

This happened to me twice in the last two weeks so I thought I would post it here. The second attempt just happened.
Two totally different people (at least they had different e mail addresses) have sent me scans of high level autographs in PSA tombs, attempting to sell them to me.
Checking the tombs out with images.google.com show that the items are owned by different dealers and some are for sale on ebay.
The latest offering included Ruth, Gehrig, Cobb, Clemente, a NY Yankee payroll check, Munson, McGraw and Young, checks, GPC's, pics and cuts.

Here are two samples:
