Default Chanel Handbag: Please help authenticate purse!

Someone gave me a Chanel bag, and since I've never owned one or seen one in person before, I have no clue what's fake and what's real. I took these pictures but I'm not sure exactly what I should be taking pictures of so if anyone needs to see more, just let me know :)




Thanks!

Seems if-y... but I'm no expert either. The seller has nice reviews though.

Thanks!
It should have a sticker with a serial number on it. Can you get a picture of that?

Hi! Its a fake. The inner fabtic should be hot pink for this model and the Chanel label inside should be a leather with silver stamping.

Question HELP! FAKE OR NOT?

My dear baghags,

please let me know if this is fake or not. Its suppose to be a vintage chanel. Jumbo lambskin 2.55 with gold hardware, no back pockets but a double C logo. It looks deceivingly real since the leather is so soft but the tag seems a bit iffy to me.
