Fake Signed T206 Cards (Too Many to List in the Title, See First Post for List)

#1-The guy on e bay did not sell fake material, he most likely bought material thru e bay, probably all legit and some were used in the criminal activity that was submitted to 3rd party services, and he sold low end authentic autographs and vintage baseballs that were legit maybe as a smoke screen. You already know where the good fake items went..major AH's, possibly high end e bay autograph dealers, look up every major AH last 3-5 years history, that is how you can tell and network...also PSA & SGC have pop reports of signed T206's so you can at least tell how many are out there...What is worse is how many vintage balls, photos and other items could have been authenticated.
#2-Since the net54 membership knows there is a problem, everyone can check there own inventory/collection regarding signed items and if you feel suspicion about the item, there are enough knowledgeable guys on active list like Richard Simon, Bill P. etc. that can tell real autographs better than most of the authentication services, and ask them.
#3-It is in my opinion, the best interest of everyone is to let the authorities handle this, many key people in the hobby know how important it is to get these forgers out of the hobby, and this will be my last post.
