I agree, but I just wish that they would at least put in a little effort in making it less obvious. Treat it with some discretion. If you're going to scam people and commit fraud, at least don't be transparent about it. If you're posing as a competent authenticator, at least don't certify the really, really obvious and poorly executed frauds. Have some standards, you know?
