Well, that’s an interesting take.
But I don’t think it was “deliberately done so poorly.” I think it was simply done amateurishly, keeping in mind that if it got spotted as a fake, what you say is true. I think they were genuinely surprised that it was spotted as a fake so quickly.
I can't agree. It simply had to be done deliberately. With the resources they have at hand, it would be nearly impossible to do such a POS job of graphic art unintentionally. This wasn't amateur, it was way beyond that.
Like doing fine calligraphy using Crayola Crayons.
