Should you sign this?

  I began this thread a few weeks ago but then the historic decision from the United States Supreme Court was delivered regarding the right against self-incrimination.  So, it is time to revisit the issue. 

   Here is the first post I made on the subject:

We will begin a thread on another fraud topic, one that is extremely serious and affects tens of thousands of people, possibly more.

     What happens when a loved one, or someone we trust, asks us to sign a document without reading it or not allowing us to really understand what we are signing?  I am not talking about a stranger asking you to sign something without getting a second opinion or someone you don't know asking - we all should know by now that this should set off alarm bells.  I am instead asking what happens if a husband, wife, close relative, close friend, someone you trust is asking you to sign a document without giving you the opportunity to review it or get a second opinion.

     The abuse of trust is something which is tragic to describe and equally tragic in its consequences.  However, this entire blog is devoted to fraud - the use of trust to get a person to perform an action.  In this instance, it is someone we trust who is taking advantage of us.

     We will explore this topic over the next few days.

So, let's return to this topic for the next thread of posts.
