Banksy's identity apparently up for sale for a million dollars on eBay
UPDATE: The eBay auction listing Banksy's real name for sale for $1,000,000 has now been removed.
The real name of street artist Banksy is apparently being sold on eBay for a million dollars.
The seller in the eBay auction, due in just over 24 hours time, claims that he has obtained Banksy's real-world identity from matching prices of his sold pieces to tax records.

Leaving aside the fact that there are not many 'anonymous street artists' we know that happily declare the income on every sale of their work to HMRC, the seller adds:
'I will reveal no more details… I give you 100% assurance that it is most certainly the full name of the street artist known as 'Banksy.''
Banksy's own website states: 'Banksy neither produces or profits from the sale of greeting cards, mugs or photo canvases of his work,' adding that, 'He is not represented by any of the commercial galleries that sell his paintings secondhand.'
