Default Counterfeits -- anyone having issues?

They're out there floating around and sometimes can be hard to spot unless you protect yourself by using a loupe. At 10d you can clearly see the pixelation but at a first glance they look great. Colors on both front and back match well, etc.

I have some that I knowingly purchased cheaply to assess the counterfeiters current state of expertise. IMHO some of these are so good that they would fool many collectors if they were roughed up a tad to simulate wear.

Of course buying grading cards is an option, but has anyone here seen or accidentally purchased some of these fakes?
