>>50459028>I've not heard of the DNA sticker.The DNA certification sticker and the other "high security" measures are on the front and back certification stickers that houses the information and other things. Like dollar bills, there are not so obvious security measures hidden in plain sight. Things like special reflective stickers, things only read by UV light, shit like that. For your average joe, it would be impossible to forge those things or would be extremely expensive.
And even for the people that can afford to do it, and at a scale where you can do enough of it to turn a profit, what card are you going to forge? Early PSA cards didn't have these high security measures in place, so maybe one of those would be better. But are you going to go for a 1st ed Charizard or some other extremely valuable card? You would be foolish to do that. All PSA10 charizards can be traced. And if a new one was on the market and up for auction, the owner of the original would speak up. And they could prove their ownership because PSA sends the cards to their address, and then there's a record of transaction from that address to a new owner. So this forged charizard, despite having a matching cert number, would be the obvious fake since it has no transactional records attached to it.
You would get away with less expensive cards that people don't care for or do their extreme research on. But then the problem is, "how many cards do you need to sell in order to break even?" If you're selling $30 slabs, you're hyper expensive forging equipment is going to be a money sink.
