Hi,
We bought a property last 2010, we issued postdated checks for the DP.We already have all necessary documents or contract to sell as proof that we bought the property. Just recently, got a call from the Property owner (company) confirming a check that we issued to the agent, they called it as retention check. And found out that the check ws never issued since its still blank and in my possession.I don't remember issuing that check too. The company said that its for agent commission that's why they need to verify if I issued it, since they can;t find the check in their office. So i confirmed that the check is still in my possession. The company told me that they received a copy of acknowledgement from that agent with my signature that I issued that check to her. When I saw the copy of the said acknowledgment, was shocked to see my signature when I don't remember signing it. Even my husband doesn't remember that I signed a document like that. Also, every document we signed we always asked for a copy. we have a xerox copy of all checks that were issued to them. We are wondering where did this document came from and why would I sign a acknowledgement of the check when It ddnt even issued. So we are sure that I didnt sign the document and they just forge my signature. What are the process of filing a case against the agent? Please advise. We are new to this stuff and we dont even have an attorney to help us out. . We feel that what the agent did and her manager(not sure if her sales manager also knw about her wrong action) mislead us by forging my signature and using my details/check details as stated on the acknowledgment letter. Please advise your prompt reply is appreciated. Thanks!
