I still can't really picture the type of fraud you're describing... The high serial number would be a clear sign that the star in question actually wasn't awarded in 1942. Plus, the record card lists two Red Stars - the one that is being sold, with a 1956 award date, and a star with a 1942 serial number and award date. How does he convince the buyer that the 1942 citation and the 1956 star go together? Not sure how the seller would explain that.
