Yet another reason not to blindly use these companies as your only source of information. Seems to be especially true for Cobb.

I'm more interested in this part of the article:

"Sources indicate that the FBI is aware of the serious problems with both JSA and PSA’s *track record of authenticating Cobb forgeries. *However, one other source, who was recently victimized purchasing over $10,000 in forgeries, told us that the FBI indicated they could not take their case because the dollar amount of the transaction was not substantial enough."

What sources indicate this, and what case could the FBI make against the alphabets? I was under the impression that their language of "opinion only" covered them from criminal negligence. Making mistakes in your job and providing shoddy service when mistakes are pointed out are not crimes. I would imagine it would be near impossible to prove any criminal intent or action here.
