Fraudulent Behavior
Where do I go to report unethical behavior by a well known signing agent that represents many signing companies? The behaviors are many! Forging signatures and dates of borrowers, sending non-notaries to collect the borrowers signatures, pretending they are notaries informing them to use excuses as to why they don't have their notary stamp with them, telling the borrowers they will sign and document their documents when they get back to the office and then this person does it for them, ( they are a "legal notary" ). This one time that I am aware of, they sent an ex-felon to do the closing, the borrowers have no idea! Notaries are told by this person(s) (owners of this company) they may have to sometimes forge the borrowers signatures and/or dates, to pay close attention to your docs! When I kept a log ( notary journal ) for the requirement of the state I work in, this same person ridiculed me for doing it and said it was not necessary, I was told that our confirmations were our logs for the Secretary of State. I ignored this and kept my journal anyway of all my closings as I knew the borrower's signatures were required in my log, as well as room for a fingerprint if necessary. I did my job with ethics and refused to ever forge or document any borrower's signatures or dates. I no longer work for this company!! I would like to hear opinions on what to do with this situation.
