As I said, don't take my remarks personally.
The title of the post said Opinions, please so I gave my opinion. I have not read the other responses, so mine may not concur with the other respondents.
As I said, I have two Countrywide loans that I closed. On page two, of the document you are questioning, the loan number is printed on the upper right corner of the jurat, so the potential criminal will have to remove that from the jurat before it can be used to help his friend get his classic car.
The docs I have are being returned to Texas. So the potential notary fraud would have to be committed by a friend of the employee in Texas who happens to have a friend in Michigan, because my commission is only valid in Michigan.
I use a notary journal, so I would know that I didn't swear or acknowledge the identity of the folks.
This paranoid thought process was developed, in part, by the NNA. They are the creators of "what if thinking" so they can cram CA's overkill (again my opinion) notary laws down the throats of other states.
In Michigan, we do not need a stamp or seal when we notarize something. Anyone can go to the Register of Deeds office and find a document I acknowledged and use my commission to commit fraud.
Instead of taking offense to my opinion, try to see if from my side.
