suspect serial numbers

How about we have a sticky thread documenting suspect serial numbers?
Going on the premise that reproduction decal makers are printing runs of decals with the same serial on them and therefore a lot of suspect basses out there will be using these identical serials, a database of "flagged" numbers could save a lot of hassle and perhaps help avoid some major disappointments.



Here's a starter for 10.

[b]S7 35688[/b] a "78 Jazz" currently being discussed on here but previously discredited as being bogus a couple of years back.
