“Why is the “Certificate Number” blacked out?
Because then it would be easy to verify that this is bogus...”
Hmmm, good point.
If this be a forgery whoever “prepared” this document had probably had no idea of what the actual “Certificate Number” would have been. What to do?
Answer: Black it out, as if it had been “officially redacted”.
Then, it wouldn’t matter if he/she knew the original number or not....
Just a thought...
