I need to know where to go for help for forgery.
Question: A Fortune 500 company that I had been employed by for over 16 years, has forged documents to obtain my medical information. My doctor informed me after he became concerned about the change in the address and fax number requesting my information to be sent to an individual within the company and not the medical department as usual. He shared the documents that were presented to him with my forged signature. Since
