Mike, good call -- sorry,
four fakes. Typically overlooking the obvious, we forgot about this hilarious piece of garbage that was up on eBay a couple of months ago and can still be seen:

We've long thought that game really is dangerous, though, since there's a difference in price of maybe a few thou' between the common $75.-$200. "green box" edition and the very pricey illustrated-cover
Indoor edition. It would take only a decent laser printer to copy a good image of the Indoor cover, and minimal effort to slip it into the frame of the "green box" edition, in order to produce a far better fraud than the one we linked above. Be hands-on with the game and have a loupe with ya if you're considering buying the expensive edition.
One other thing, or group of things, that could potentially be a worry among games is any of the "WG" sets. Those represent a significant proportion of the relatively few really expensive games out there. Cards would be the cheapest and easiest of all to fake, a far simpler matter than shaped and lithographed tin, and of course with a potentially much higher return for the scammer. Have the card collectors on board run into fakes (as opposed to clearly marked commercial repros) of any game cards? We'd be very interested to hear, while hoping there's nothing to report...
