It's a really really old scam. "I've got a bridge to sell you" is the earliest example in modern history...but there was probably someone selling shares of the Colosseum a couple thousand years ago.

Literally selling a lie:

"entitles the holder to the representation of the Brooklyn Bridge depicted herein"
