Harry Potter fake appears on the internet
Published Tuesday, May 8 2007, 11:35 BST | By Matthew Houghton
An anonymous author wrote a 250,000-word version of the seventh book in the series and put it up online.
Book publishers Bloomsbury have insisted that the version is bogus.
According to The Sun, only three other people other than J K Rowling have read the book - all of which are publishing bosses.
A spokeswoman for the company said: "We are aware of the internet version but it is not the real thing. People will have to wait until 21 July."
