Concur - do not do the 'bend test', ever, on a high-$ card. The fake hasn't been made that fails only the bend test and nothing else - you can usually spot something visually, blacklight or loupe, no need to resort to that.
The scan is too small to get to the dot matrix, but from this one I see the beweling lines being continuous and black ink of the rules text seem to be OK.
You need to upload a 600 dpi scan of the card somewhere and link to that if you want better ideas from others.
If you want to get more comfortable yourself, check the card under good magnification and compare the ink dots to another Unlimited card. Check how the black text is printed. It should be contiunuous black, without the print dots. Also see how the black lines around the card and textbox are. The black is printed last and is always continuous, so no gaps or other colors printed over the black lines. Also the casting cost oval doesn't have the dot patterns.
Hope this helps,
