Default Faking Southern Leaguers?

How common is it for people to fake SLers on eBay?

http://cgi.ebay.com/Lot-2-T-206-Bill...#ht_802wt_1139

There seems to be so much wrong with this listing:

1.) Who the hell is Corfe Mullen? I'm assuming he means George (Charles).
2.) Neither Bradley nor Mullen are Southern Leaguers, yet they have the Old Mill SL back.
3.) The scans are poor and the text looks off.

Is it common to put fake SL backs on real commons? Or is this just a horrible reproduction effort both front and back? Or is there something I am missing?
