Default Fake Rock Hard Test Pressings?

I just noticed I've been seeing quite a few Rock Hard test pressings (12") on Ebay recently, selling for over $300 a pop. There's one up there now (https://www.ebay.com/itm/BEASTIE-BOY...AOSw45xclop s) for sale with a different type of marker than I've seen in the past.

Does anyone know how to validate these as authentic? Given how sloppy test pressings are (just hand-written labels) and how expensive they are, I imagine they are at a high likelihood of being bootlegged.

Edit: Also, no offense if this is someone's Ebay posting from the message board. I'm not implying that this is fake, just that it looks different so I'm wondering how to verify these things at all.
