I just saw something on Temu, which I hardly ever look at:
ARE THESE REAL or COUNTERFEIT?

Its sort of disturbing, but there are some pretty authentic looking coins on Temu as well, which are ridiculously cheap. Counterfeiting is on the rise. I figure Baseball Cards are a lot easier to counterfeit
I would stay away. Best case scenario if the cards are real, you have a 1 in 598 chance of a star card, so you are paying $30 for a common card most likely. Again, best case scenario is if the cards are real. The seller is selling these cards in "slabs" but these cards were never authenticated by a reputable third party grading company (PSA, SGC, Beckett, etc).
buying O-Pee-Chee (OPC) baseball cards
also collecting US & Canadian silver coins
Im sure many will fall for this scam. But after all this is a hobby where many don't seem to care if a card has been trimmed...
