Where I am from that qualifies as “False Pretences” in plain language communicating with intent to deceive. Email scams and the like are other examples. Sounds like the local constabulary and possibly the FBI might be interested in this. This is a criminal offence wherever you hang your hat!
Hi there! I also picked up some black stuff but only one can of 11’s that’s all they had..
We are getting 20 cm more this weekend so go figure!! No shooting this wknd👎

I have two in .54 calibre. One dressed in brass ,the other in steel browned finish. I know of another in my area so that's three . They were very popular after the Jeremiah Johnson film came out.
