It's funny to me how similar this discussion is to the coin hobby, which I was part of for many years (years ago).
There are "coin doctors", who are apparently known in the hobby to many prominent people. However, no one seems to want to say who they are, or even if they do, and although the "authorities" seem to be on the case, no one ever seems to be brought to justice.
So again, it's nice to know the "authorities" are actively involved, but I'm skeptical that anything will actually be done about it.
The sports card hobby is about 20 years behind the coin hobby, and if the outcomes are the same, then don't expect anything meaningful to be done by the "authorities".
Education and Caveat Emptor are your best defense.
