Fake IDs, Documents & Cheques

When we add posts about a fraud to the AvoidAClaim blog, we also provide images of the fake passports, licenses, documents and cheques that lawyers received from the fraudsters. On this page, we thought we’d lay them all out in one place to give an idea of the abundance and quality of the forged documents being used to try to ensnare lawyers and make scams seem credible.

We often get asked, “How could anyone fall for these scams?” This page demonstrates just how sophisticated the fraud attempts can be.
