It's listed as 1945 FSB and obviously is not by both the ngc grade and the photo.
The title says FB, and listing says "virtually full split bands". A 10k coin listed for 4k.

How do you even report something like this? Or am I missing something?

It's called hype. I can't believe anyone who collects FSB Mercury dimes will be fooled.

It's a little more than dishonest, wouldn't you say?
The title specifically lists an item that does not exist.
More misleading than dishonest. I consider it to be click bait to get potential buyers to open the listing to check it out more closely. This is a perfect example of why one needs to read the listing description carefully and use due diligence and common sense. Caveat emptor.

Totally disagree. It says "virtual FB" and it is slabbed. There is no deception, just a little hype as @PerryHall said.
It's no different than adding "blazer" to a Gem Morgan or "Monster" to a toned Morgan.
All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.
Or near prooflike to any BU Morgan.
Yep ... Hype.
Interesting choice.

The seller is a virtual hype artist...

Driving too fast for conditions.
hype. some one will get worked up over it, jmo
Me thinks that "virtual" in the description was really supposed to say "virtually".

Agree. The suffix has the same definition.
Having virtually fully split bands is like being virtually fully pregnant.
