I THINK it might be OK, but if BeenBurned is available, I'd like for her to take a look at it since she's had more experience with those J3J- serial numbers than I. A lot of fakes with that prefix have been found in other Mini Signature styles from the same line although usually with different style numbers. And unfortunately there are also a lot of fakes sold through Facebook so it pays to be extra careful.

That bag is authentic. As long as the seller is showing her own pictures of the actual item, it's fine.

I thought I'd add a bit more info as to why the J3J creeds can be tricky. As shown in the examples below, the counterfeiters did a fairly "good" job getting the font and spacing right on the fakes. And in some cases, the fakes have the "correct" serial number that seemingly matches the bag it's on.

I have this bag in black and it's one of my favs. The leather is amazing.

It's from the Soho line.

But I'm not an authenticator. lol
