- Anne Frank Diary Fraud Finally Admitted

People already knew that the dairy was written with a BIC ballpoint pen, which was only a prototype at that time and was in no way industrialized, let alone sold on the market. They were commercialized in 1951. This already permitted many people to determine the book to be a fraud as it was physically impossible, unless, Anne Frank had a way to travel through time, to the future and then return with a BIC ballpoint pen…
