TL;DR Summary
Dru Marshall, a 26-year-old from Romsey, Hampshire, was fined £613 and given a community order after being found guilty of fraud by false representation for listing a fake "antler walking stick" on eBay, claiming it belonged to the late Queen Elizabeth II and falsely stating that the proceeds would go to charity.
