Yes, DVi.net has already uncovered it's a fake.
Either somebody still doesn't know how to verify legitimate leaks, or they're having fun at the expense of those who have yet to come down from the HV20 high.
Something that makes it a dead giveaway is the focal length marked on the front of the lens as 18x zoom, yet it still has the same 6.1-61mm markings. There are other obvious clues which have already been pointed out by people within Canon USA who are laughing their collective asses off at anyone who's taking this seriously.
That isn't to say that something similarly spec'd won't come out in the future, but it aint this cam. That's pretty obvious.
