This “true” version sounds like it’s had several coats of varnish. The poor chap purportedly has an excuse for everything, but the fake reference and command cert are what stand out for me as marking him out as a dead set fraudster - and I’ve had the dubious honour to act for plenty of his ilk.
Having had a brush with a professional fraudster, they
