Is Sports Card Fraud investigator a real thing?

Investigating Corporate Hobby Fraud in the sports card & memorabilia hobby for FREE since 1997 online (1992 offline).
I am also a trained Forensic Document Examiner. I can't say I'm a professional at this because I also do this FOR FREE ALWAYS since 1999! I changed my last name in 1999 (took my wife's name when we were married! Yes, men can do it as easily as women can.) because it NEVER was "MY" last name.
Donated over 3-million cards and 1.000's of autographs (updated as of 2014) to hospitalized children. Started in 1989 after being inspired by Gary Carter - MLB HOF'er (my hero & friend until his very untimely death in Feb. 2012). I donated 30,000+ cards minimum every year from 1989-2014. Any profit I could have made from this hobby in 25-years went to these kids instead. Most of these kids didn't have a chance to live their lives which only encouraged me to do more for them.
Even though I became very sick myself starting in 2001, I got to live 34-years without illness- so I have no regrets, and I lived more of a wonderful life than I ever thought possible!
Former Pacemaker Technologist for Medtronic, EKG Tecnologist and Interpretation Expert (Nationally Certified as Educator by Dr. Henry J.L. Marriott in 1995, Orlando, FL- he was one of my few heroes in my life!).
I got to save many lives by myself because I taught myself everything there was to know about EKG Interpretation. I caught several heart attacks before the patients or doctors knew there was anything wrong. At first all nurses and doctors thought I was crazy asking them to do STAT 12-LEAD EKG's, but when I was correct three times in a row I was never questioned by anyone again. I was fortunate enough to catch things that most would never see because I sharpened my pattern recognition skills as well as was possible.
This also made the transition to Forensic Document Examination in autographs fairly easy (that I ONLY did for free).
