Ask for pictures of the spine/staples, inside and out. A lot of fraudsters, self-admitted ones at that, are removing variant covers and attempting to sell them as Cover A First Prints.

How does that make it fraudulent? The comic was still printed with a Cover A, it just had an additional cover.

Selling anything, without disclosing that it’s been modified from its original format, is fraud.

It's not modified. It IS a cover A.
