Will PSA really slab a card with a fake sig Authentic?

I think that's what is going on. The card is authentic but the signature is not. As pointed out, PSA/DNA holders are blue. The red borders are just for cards. This is a serious loophole that PSA should close. Collectors will get confused.

Not entirely true. There are red labels used when the autograph AND card are being graded.

Often the red label is more highly sought after because it authenticates the card.



This is problematic when an uneducated buyer sees red PSA label and thinks both card and sig are authenticated.

I don't believe they would slab a jordan auto card, based on the card only. Certain athletes, like Jordan, all get checked to see if the autograph is authentic before grading/slabbing them.
