Accessory scams.
Fake approval stamp marks:
Legal UK CBs have always carried a stamp mark to show that they are legal to
use.
In an attempt to fool the authorities, some people stuck false stamp marks on their
illegal CB radios. This usually took the form of a paper sticker which, unless you
looked carefully, could look genuine.
Beware of such stickers, check that any approval mark is part of the original
marking - not a sticker. Remember that any CB that operates on AM or SSB is
illegal in the UK. If such equipment has a stamp, it is not valid.
