So I just found this ebay listing that is supposedly selling cuttings of a Leilani Nepenthes cross that produces pitchers taller than a wine bottle. Is this a scam or not? If not, could someone please direct me to the cross? Thanks!

Definitely not a scam. Jeremiah Harris is good.
He more likely than not did the cross himself, so not much chance anyone else has the plant or info on it.

The day Jeremiah scams anyone is the day I repot my entire collection in MiracleGro. Having met him in person, I can say that he is both an extremely knowledgeable and honest grower - definitely not someone who would post shady listings on eBay. I have heard nothing but compliments about him from all the CP circles that I know.

But is it even possible to have pitchers THAT big?

Nepenthes "Caesar" is well known for having gigantic pitchers. Take a look at some others:

Yeah
I'll vouch for Jeremiah as well. He's a super cool guy and as straight up as they come. Many deals with him myself all flawless.
Top notch guy imo
Caesar is merrilliana x Truncata. I believe it was done by Sam Estes of leilani
The opposite cross is very legit as well.
Truncata x merrilliana. Mine is small in comparison
