Ironic Coincidence

[Bonaro]

I found this Ebay listing today and it is just too ironic.
The sellers name is US-Karuk and he is selling gold panning concentrates

Is this just a weird coincidence or the latest funding tactic of the tribe?

Please dont go flame this guy because I have no idea what is intentions are, it could be just coincidence.

Dan this would be a little spooky to me! Yep the US-Karuk name kinda makes me think..........using gubermint/wacoenviromental words ,you " COULD" be buying dirt only! why would any prospector / miner OR anyone use that name if they knew of the past history of whats going on! I guess the saying , "Buyer beware" makes sense! IF I had any extra $$ I would (and I don't) like to try out their cons to see if they were up-n-up! plus I don't know what "unresearched" means that's written on the package! I "assume" to think I know ,BUT what does the seller mean maybe something different! Its kinds like stepping out on questionable thin ice!

They have the right to dredge tribal lands................

Curiosity got the better of me so I contacted the seller. He was pretty firm in his reply that he was NOT a tribal member.
"unresearched" probably means he did not make any effort to prove there was any or add any gold in the samples. I would expect screened bank run material.

Id say it is a poor choice of names...........but that's his decision!
