She said she got it from her friend whom gets it from her husband whom gets it from someone else.... for $25.

Well anyways the card looks 80-85% real... the color is a little off and the outer edges in the card is not perfect. So if a officer looks at the card, he would defiantly look it's fake but it's rare that he can see it's rare when she shows it from distance. What would happen if she is caught? Is there a fine? or Jail? What if my mom says she just found it off the floor?

Found it off the floor does not mean you can use it even if it is real.

TORONTO, ONTARIO, Sep 14, 2006 (CCNMatthews via COMTEX) -- During the summer there has been an increase in the use of counterfeit Metropasses. Since July, TTC Special Constables laid over 200 criminal charges against TTC riders using the fake passes.

If you sell, buy or use a counterfeit Metropass, you face a criminal charge.

The TTC will continue surveillance and pass-checking activities, and TTC Special Constables will be laying more criminal charges.

counterfeit bills/tokens/metro passes/tickets use to be really popular a few years ago.

Oh yea, thank your mom for me. I just LOVE paying 100 dollars for my metro pass.
