"and they "asked a few questions" - all the answers to which were probably in the loan docs."
It's probably similar to the types of questions you get asked when trying to access your credit report online - which of these addresses have you lived at, which of these cars did you once own, etc. Five or six questions that only you would probably know the answers to, so as weird as it sounds it's actually a pretty good way of proving you are who you say you are.
"ugh curious to see if it ever records"
Yeah, well, there's that... The article says this happened in IL, and they don't recognize remote notarizations, so I don't know how they plan on getting these docs to record unless they monkey with the docs to make it look like there are wet signatures. No one really examines the signatures that closely, and you can do amazing things with printers these days... Heck, if you can make physical objects with a 3-D printer, faking a wet signature is probably a piece of cake. |
