What does 1 MCΩ and 1 Mf2 stand for?

Wow I've never actually seen a fake!

Exactly as shanky and others are saying. Contact amazon asap. They will refund you no question but make it clear to them about it being a fraudulent copy. I had same problem with a new green regs book. Pretty good copy as it goes but had instant refund no questions asked. Didnt even ask me to send the book back. Came in handy for the wonky coffee table leg!!

It does look like a classic OCR typo, especially the Mf2.
Get Amazon to take it back and give you a real copy.

They will refund you mate, one of my college mates got a fake bs7671 big green book from amazon he had it for about 2 years till he realised certain mistakes and amazon still gave him his money back even after 2 years he just had to send a picture of the part that was fake to prove it. Good luck mate.

Well thanks to the OP for this one. Turns out I have similar errors in my copy, also bought from amazon... I will be on to them and the IET this afternoon. Good job I was going to have to buy a new one in Jan anyway .. lol.

Just to update .... looked at the seller's feedback just now. Through June and July of this year he had over a hundred 1 star reviews for books not arrived, and back in May a bad review stating a counterfeit item was sold. Seems like he got rumbled in May, continued taking money but not sending the books out..... How amazon still have them listed as a seller is beyond me.

What I mean is that the seller kept taking orders and payment but not sending any books out for over three months resulting in over a hundred customers ripped off ! and amazon still let them have an active account !

Thanks guys puts mind at ease that should get refund. Altho worrying that amazon is using some dodgy sellers. Will email them later. IET direct if possible from now on I think

 

[Andy78]

Amazon emailed me back.... refund in 2-3 days no problems.

How did you pay for it? If card etc, are you not covered?
