[WSBARP] closing question

[Anthony Gibbs]

I got contacted by a PC who is currently out-of-country with his wife. PC
plans to close on a house purchase in July and has asked whether I am
willing to sign on his behalf.

I'm pretty sure it's not a scam, but his bank has required that a POA be
executed by either him or his wife (the borrowers) or an *attorney-at-law*
in order to sign the closing documents.

He said he's reviewed all the documents and needs only an attorney to sign
for him.

My red-flag-o-meter is going a little nuts with this. Has anyone ever "just
signed" closing documents at a client's direction without a full review and
due diligence? PC said he doesn't have problems or questions with the
closing documents.

Any thoughts/comments appreciated!

Thanks,
Anthony
