Lou Gehrig Cut Autograph---I really need help

[J.McMurry]

I wonder if the TPG's ever take notice when they receive a high percentage of fake material from the same submitter?

Yes they do.

So,if they do pay attention to who submits a high number of bad material, the TPG's could actually be a big help in tracking down forgers or at least the middleman. My question is do they or have they ever taken that step?

What upside would there be for them? Loss of revenue?

Very good point. Remember, tpas make money whether they deem an auto real or fake, they would have no interest in stopping a flood of bogus submissions.
