Fake POAs steal your money & identity.

anytimes the first step somebody will do when they try to scam you is to file a power of attorney against you to be in control of some of your authority. And they do this through fake notations, they do it through fraudulent signatures, they do it through questions documents and what will happen is if that power attorney is out there filed, you may not know about it. And they could be stopping your mail, they could be transferring assets, they could be recording documents that are not in your best interest. And the only way to find out about it is to do a full search for hidden PAAs that could affect you. It could be anybody. Sometimes it's a friend, a relative, a colleague, if you're involved with an inheritance case, it could be maybe even the executive of the estate. You don't want to let this go because the longer it goes, the more damage they can do using that PAA to sign things on your behalf, to make it seem like you had a hand in it that you were the one giving the authority And the longer that they have to file and sign these documents, the more damage they can do against your finances, against your credibility against your reputation, and you may not find out for a long time until something comes up that is either a credit problem, a legal problem, a criminal problem, or even losing out on money that you've saved up that somebody transferred away from you.
