Man pleads guilty to selling counterfeit NGC Slabs and Coins.

I found this on another site. I thought I would share it here. I hope no one here bought from him.

Here is some more info on this and other crimes he pleaded guilty to as well. All I can say is wow.

He probably won't do more than a year in jail but the court will take as much of his money as possible.

 

Good !!

 

Glad he was caught but how extensive and accurate are the NGC slabs? Are the counterfeit coins
In the slabs the same NGC ID as real ones? What is NGC doing other than expressing they will
vigorously persue counterfeiters?

 

While we all know how us feel about this man and his actions, it reaffirms the need to educate yourself about coins and not simply rely on the "safety" of slabs. In facts, slabs make it HARDER to authenticate coins if they are in fake slabs, something I am sure NGC does not wish people to dwell on.
