This is not an official design, right?

Can't say for sure, but technically, they are already producing an inlay that is almost identical to Steelbooks. So producing a fake one wouldn't be a problem.
However, it could also be that third party sellers are buying these fantasybok steels and are switching the inlays on their own, in order to sell them for a profit on eBay. (Getting inlays cheap is no problem. There are gaming steels that cost like 1-2€)
Either way, this development was foreseeable. I just hope this isn't turning into a cat and mice game from here on. (We find a way to destinguish real and fake books and they adapt to it soon after)
