Even cards that are in holders have slipped through PSA, SGC and others. It’s always nice to get the cards from an original owner. With today’s technology they can slip through grading companies as has been mentioned numerous times on this forum.

The card is either altered or unaltered; one owner not known to have altered cards in its history does not mean the card is unaltered. A determination should be made on evidentiary grounds of fact and examination of the card, not based on authority of what is usually not the cards only owner.
Cracking the card and actually being able to examine it does a lot more to determine if it is altered than looking at a name on the slab.
