Anyone ever heard of East Coast Authenticators?

Currently on eBay there is a dual signed envelope by JFK and Jackie. The COA is provided by East Coast Authenticators?

The appearance of the COA put me off immediately. The COA looked basically like a typed letter on letter with a generic gold seal and someone's name.

Fake....horribly so. That blurry scanned "COA" isn't worth the paper it's printed on either.

Sad that there are 10 watchers.

Here's an earlier \ East Coast Authenticators experience:

First, it is a shame 10 individuals---one of which might get duped---are watching the item.

second, the moment I looked at the COA, I immediately thought "fraud."

Thanks for the link. I'm glad I wasn't the only to pick up the issues with East Coast.

Why is it “sad” and “a shame” that there are ten watchers on this item?

I watch items for all sorts of reasons, including fake autographs where I’m interested to see what happens with them. I understand that eBay adds a heart emoji whenever I click to watch an item, but that doesn’t mean I “love” it or have any intention of bidding on it. I can’t be the only one who uses the watch function in this way, so it’s false logic to assume that everyone following this item thinks it’s the real deal and is a potential buyer.

Why make a big deal over a casual inconsequential remark used in the broadest sense. Since I not a veteran autograph enthusiastic, I erroneously assumed those watching were potential buyers. My sincere apologies for my poor wording and my glaring lack of logic.

Garrett - If it helps you feel any better...we both got dinged on that comment. Keep on posting. I appreciate your contributions about autographs I also have an interest in.
