Mrs. Bennett examined the copy closely.
“Margaret, I’m not a handwriting expert, but this signature appears inconsistent with the ones in your existing documents. We need to obtain the original records and report the discrepancy.”

“Could he have forged my signature?”
“It is possible, but that must be established through proper investigation.”
She continued reviewing the documents.
Then she stopped.
“There is another issue.”
She turned her monitor toward me.
A separate company had filed a claim asserting that Daniel was entitled to a significant payment connected to a business agreement. The claim relied on documents suggesting I had agreed to guarantee certain obligations using my property.
“I never guaranteed anything,” I said.
“Then we need to act quickly to protect you.”
She recommended notifying the relevant institutions that the documents were disputed, securing my accounts, and ensuring that no further transactions could be made without my explicit approval.
