As we
reported previously, JK Rowling is suing eBay for allowing illegal and fraudulent copies of her works to be sold on the auction site. Jo has managed to obtain an injunction which prevents eBay from listing illegal copies (namely e-versions of her books), which is binding until a May 23rd hearing.
Not only is Jo losing out from the auctioning of illegal books, but fans are being hoodwinked and wasting their money.
Marjorie, webmistress of the MuggleNet-affiliated collectors' advice site
JKR's Army, was contacted by Neil Blair (Jo's lawyer) who asked fans to lend their support. Marjorie has set up
a petition, which we strongly encourage you all to sign. We will soon have more ways you can help, but for now, visit
this page for additional info.

I have duly signed the petition and just as MuggleNet did, I strongly recommend all of you to sign that petition - irrespective of whether you are a Harry Potter fan or not. Thank you!

And if I may request so, it would be awesome if you guys could copy this post on other forums you are a member of too. Thanks again!
A plea to Harry Potter fans: Please support J.K. Rowling on her eBay lawsuit!
