Hi,

Some comments:
-The chance that this pistol is 'real' is slim to nothing. As people here rightfully explained.
-A 'real' SS-luger is difficult to find, and again not too difficult. Most were normal police issue P08's, not marked in any particular way, except for normal police property markings, etc... Some were commercial Mauser-banner style (one was actually dug up a while ago, covered in a piece of SS-clothing). NONE are marked specifically as 'SS', no documentation is known today that proves any ever were.

The grip markings are probably as fake as the rest. Unit marking was stopped long before this pistol was produced.

Hope you can retreive your money/dutch luger/whatever from the person do did the trade with.
