I would love to own a single signed Babe Ruth baseball, but will never, ever pull the trigger. There is so much fraud in this hobby it makes me sick.

And kudos to Peter Nash for writing an entire article without mentioning Rob Lifson.

The really sick part is that the government STILL hasn't done ANYTHING about this even after receiving numerous reports of fraud.
I don't know what it will take for them to take action.

How long has Coaches Corner been perpetrating fraud in this hobby? Certainly the FBI knows what is going on there. They obviously do not care.

Whom would they charge, and with what crime?

It's not illegal to be incompetent.

That's why they changed COA to COO. The illegal part of the equation is the forgers who the FBI could easily track down by obtaining the submission records of the authentication companies. How is it that the FBI has yet to track down Coaches Corner's submitters?

I'm pretty sure that nobody submits that shit to Coach's Corner. That crap originates with them.
