Default Re: Reproduction window sticker fail!

The fakes have become so good that I just seldom trust these documents anymore. With regards to buildsheets, what used to take seconds to see a fake can now take a couple of hours. They are still making minor mistakes on them but they are getting damn good at them even though it is fairly easy to spot fake weathering and aging. Unfortunately all it does is those of us with real documents mean less and less and people are beginning to not trust anything anymore. </div></div>
