I've almost reached the point where I'm through trying to stop these fakes. I think if people out there are dumb enough to bid money on these obvious fakes, they deserve to be bilked.
Because if only they'd educate themselves with a quick google search, they could become familiar with the diagnostics and not be taken in.
Vintage baseball cards are pretty hard to replicate, far more difficult even than forging coins or stamps or currency in my opinion, and once you know the look and the feel, you'll never get bilked by an outright forgery.
