This is how it works in my experience.

Me: Sorry to tell you but that card is altered.

Other: I can see how it could be altered but mine is NOT.

Me: Your card is altered and I explain how.

Other: Now this gets 3 different responses.
1) Least common, That sucks I now have a altered card in my collection.
2) Most common, I see the card listed as a rare error for sale within a few days by the person I was trying to help.
3) Have the card owner call me names and tell me how important they are in the hobby and how stupid I am. Then they list it as a rare error card for sale.

I won't out names but I have had #s 2 and 3 happen on this forum from some very respected members.
