forging signatures
| Sat, 09-08-2007 - 12:08pm |
I have a post office box in my name. Mail is being delivered there for myself, my husband and my daughter. I am the box owner, I am the only one who can make changes to it. I received a mail forwarding request from the post office. My husbands mistress signed his name to the form. Even though it was in his name, and I know it's not his signature, the PO box is mine. Can I file some kind of complaint against her for forgery? I also have a check that she forged my husbands name on to cash. It was his checking account, he chose not to press charges. This PO box is mine, she's trying to mess with something that is mine, by using his name? What can I do about this one? So far, I am not responding to any thing that she has done using my husbands name. Even things that are being sent to me. I know that most of it is to just get some kind of reaction out of me, they aren't getting it. Legal action I will take if I can. Thanks for putting up with me, I really am a basket case.

Rhea,
Report the forged mail box document to the post master of your post office. Show them a document with your signature on it. If you can get anywhere with the local post office, go to the next level. The blue pages of your phone book lists US Postal Service contacts.
As for your husband's checking account, if it's his account and not a joint account with you, there's nothing you can do about his girlfriend forging checks. It's the bank's fault for not asking for proper ID when she cashes a check and if she keeps doing it the bank may take action against your husband up to and including reporting fraudulent activity to the police and closing his account.
I also think if your husband's girlfriend is doing these things she feels threatened by you. I say, "too bad" she should have picked someone who wasn't married to get involved with! So :PPPP to her.
Hang in there. It will get better and your husband will have to live with his choice.
