Notary Block prefilled -- incorrectly

I've been noticing this more often lately, the notary section is prefilled, incorrectly. Sometimes the wrong state or -- my personal favorite -- bwr social security number listed by SS section on public document like Deed.

I do the line-through & initial, put in the correct information, btu I really wish the completers of the documents kept their hands off my section! Especially since they obviously don't know what their doing. Hope I wouldn't be responsible if identity theft occurred due to lender/tc negligence on drafting docs.

Just needed to vent...sorry.

I'm a CT notary too and whereas I feel your pain...these lenders are dense when filling in acknowledgement section, I don't think they'll ever get it. But I'm replying because I'm wondering....have you done any closing for Accurate Sign Ups or Vantage Title? Because they don't pay...so beware.

I've seen the recent posts, but haven't worked for either of them. What parts of CT do you cover? email me, maybe we can network. I have a couple people in state that I flip to when I can't do a signing. It helps the tc or ss if I can provide a name & phone # of a good SA even if I can't personally meet their request.
