Abstract

Simulated or imitation forgery is one of the pervasive forgeries among the group of forgers, where genuine signature of signatory authority is available to forger and he attempts to execute by following the pictorial effect of the design of the signature by simply drawing the same. However, several factors are revealed during this act of forgery. Not every reproduction has a perfect evidence of poor line quality, retouching, and other “classic” features that may establish it as a fraud. Others, specifically those carried out when copying simple short signatures may have a line quality not very diverse from the signature and can be made without pen lifts, retouching, or tracing. In such cases, it may not be probable to opine with an extraordinary degree of confidence that the questioned writing is an imitation, but, according to its degree of inaccuracy, that exist, it may be apparent to postulate forgery.\
