There are a lot of conflicting reports out there. I haven't seen anything definitive yet. Maybe they just arrested the wrong guys? It will be interesting to see if we get the true story.

In any case, the card's fake.

At least it's not a blue-eyed variant.

Now being carried on CNN: The Find

Fake news???

This is why we have the term fake news. I get that most journalists don't have much hobby knowledge. Couldn't they at least put in a call to Keith Olbermann before reporting about a 7 figure card being "discovered?"

Still checking the news to see when this card gets deemed a fake. It's received so much coverage, I can't believe it hasn't been outed yet.

The other story referenced in this post has mostly unraveled, and it wasn't as simple as a submission to a TPG.

Will the "news" even bother to run a retraction? For all the "news" stories CNN and others run that are not true, it seems increasingly apparent that truth is not a primary concern for them

The card is a fake.
