ZTA had a similar story. A badge showed up on eBay that had been stolen over 20 years before. The seller refused to end the auction and the owner's daughter couldn't get the police report to eBay in time to stop it. Fortunately the owner's daughter did end up winning the badge and returning it to her mom but we all sweated it.
Pin collectors and sellers get so many e-mails claiming that a listed badge is a stolen or lost one that they are incredibly cynical and often rude. You'll notice that many sellers won't reveal initials.
Don't even bother to e-mail unless you have a question about the condition or year of the pin because they simply don't care about your GLO. It's harsh but true.
