Willie Mays 2003 Forged Counterfeit 2003 Topps Legends Card

I feel that the first fake auto in the thread closely matches all those signed 8x10 with the fake "Say Hey" hologram that we've been seeing the last couple of years.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh crap. I might own one of these 1996 Wille Mays.

Most collectors own at least one of the New Jersey autos. I have a Jeter. There’s also Kobe, Ali, Unitas, Koufax, Harper, Pujols, Starr and maybe a few others.

I took a picture of it. I don't exactly know what to look for, but I assume it's now a fake.

This is the first time in my collecting career that I KNOW something of mine is now likely a forgery, and it feels really crappy.

Unfortunately, it is a forged/counterfeit card.

Oh, man. Wow. So, this is what it feels like.

Thanks for letting me know.

What's crazy is that I bought this in 2018 because I had heard so many shady things about the Say Hey holo and wanted to just have an example I knew for sure was real. Haha.

If you're buying things like that Mays during your collecting career, I can guaraneffentee you have at least 50% in your collection that are "likely forgery" Likely They ARE FORGERIES, not likely forgeries. WAKE UP!

Things are getting so bad out there, I've almost relegated myself to only buying on the B/S/T on this site.

Based on this situation and also your opinion, I've decided to throw my collection away except for the ones that I got in person.
