Landlord might have provided a fake signature on tenancy agreement

prob doing it so if you took him to court, he could say that wasn't him and that's not his signature

This is yet another made up story from that weirdo FTBSOS.

The idiot always gives himself away by contradicting himself and the use of bold text. The guy's a nutty fantasist who quite frankly needs locking up.

Here's one of his crazier tales:

legally you are allowed to use as many different kinds of signatures as you want.


I frequently do this myself, for example if I am ever in a legal battle with someone I will use totally a different signature in the court documents to my regular signature.


the reason for this is prevent any fraudulent documents later appearing in the case with my signature. Which believe it or not actually happens quite regularly.


If your LL signed it, it is his signature regardless of wether it was his regular "style" or not. All he needs to do is to reproduce it on request to prove it is his signature.

Agree with everything you say, but I think it would need an expert opinion that the two signatures were written by the same person - given enough time many people could produce very good copies of another signature.

I personally don't really have a signature - I just scrawl my name and it has never been questioned, although as has been mentioned it is impossible to "refuse" a signature if the identity of the writer is known.

Indeed. I use a very special signature for couriers.
It looks a lot more like 'Box Unchecked' than my name

Then it may be good to ask this. We are talking about a tenancy agreement signed by a person who later signed a cheque regarding a deposit but with a different signature.

Sabrinah, can I introduce you to Thomas?

Thomas, this is Sabrinah.

I don't see the point with my subject.

The connection is not the thread topic, but the posters.

You have the right to wear your pants on your head too, for all the good it will achieve.


Did your bank accept the cheque?
