eBay Australia has a fraud awareness page and a related flash game, both of which feature a depiction of a fraudster as a balding, bespectacled man (not unlike Pat) with Tux, the Linux mascot, prominently displayed on his shirt. I don't get it .... if you support Linux you're a scammer????

I cannot play the game for some reason. The times I have tried I got a service unavailable. Furthermore, it appears as if they removed the tux image from the guy's shirt.
