Could that be considered fraud? They should be able to take at face value that a document that you signed is actually your signature. Seems a bit odd to expect

Seems a bit odd to expect a business partner to "verify your signature". How could they do that anyway? Compare it to previous documents? You could have changed your signature.
Not saying they should get away with draconian agreements, but the "right" thing to do would be to not sign it.
- komali2 8y agoHe could claim he didn't sign it, but I doubt he'd get away with it because the next question would be "why did they take the contract from you, with this signature on it, and the file it under your name, with this signature on it? If you didn't sign and give them this contract, why did you not question why they employed you without (from your perspective) having turned in a signed employment contract?"
- awakeasleep 8y agoNo, thats not the right tree to bark up. No one can testify about why someone else did something- that is the "objection! speculation" that you hear. Im curious how this would actually go, considering it must have happened before.
- brokenmachine 8y agoThey can ask you why you would sign it with an alternate signature if you were not intending to honor the contract however. I expect the judge would do everything in his power to rule against you in that case. I'm also curious about what has happened when people tried this before.
