Dangerous Margins

Tue, 06 Nov 2007 14:35:34 PST

Dangerous Spacing /Margins

In order to determine letter spacing, all that is required is to draw a box around the letters being measured and compare the sizes of the letters being compared between the two writings under analysis (see slides numbering 227 and 228 on your CD).

There are more than one type of spacing involved in handwriting that needs to be investigated, in fact, there are a total of eight (8). They are (1)“general spacing, (2) horizontal spacing (3) vertical spacing, (4) upper margins, (5) lower margin, (6) right hand margin and (7) left hand margins. (8) Letter spacing which will be excluded from this discussion as letter spacing is explained exhaustedly under the heading “Primary indicators of speed” in level 2.

No two writers will write with the same type of spacing or margins in the writing. Identification of a writer is made easier by not only identifying “spacing” but understanding the “whys” of spacing as well.

First lets distinguish between “general spacing, “horizontal spacing and “vertical spacing” . Where the margins are located is self explanatory. All the analyst needs is to have an understanding of the “why’s”.

General Spacing.

The general use of space is often conditioned by the purpose of the manuscript. How important is the message that is going to be conveyed. The writer subconsciously evaluates the following 4 factors.

1 The writer’s feeling for the subject, is it a pleasant or unpleasant topic.

2 How long will the manuscript be. Most persons are inclined to get a fairly short text onto one page. If the writing becomes longer than anticipated, most writers are reluctant to take the trouble of making a new page-adjustment for the sake of a couple of lines If the text is becoming longer than the writer anticipated, he will prefer to write the last lines closer together rather than start a new page. (see bottom margin)

3 The absolute size of his usual handwriting, and his spatial conditions (the ratio of the space at his disposal determines automatically whether his text will be increased in length or shortened).

4 Placement, where the text will begin on the writing surface. The majority of times this placement is habitual. (refer to slides 227and 228 on the CD.)

Horizontal Spacing

Horizontal spacing is the spacing between the words written on the paper.

NOTE: In connection with vertical spacing we must, when we are dealing with German handwriting ( that is, with texts written in the German alphabet, take into consideration a national peculiarity.

The German alphabet is , as we know, peculiar for size-ratios which differ from those of any national alphabet written in Latin letters. The medium letters are three times (instead of twice) and the long letters five times (instead of three times) the height of the short letters. Consequently the German system of handwriting tends, by it exaggeration of the upper and lower projections, to result in a “dovetailing” of the lines with the lines above and below.

Vertical spacing

By vertical spacing we understand the spatial separation of line from line.

Vertical spacing is the distance the writer maintains between the lines of writing. There are writers who will “dovetail” or “tangle” lines together. (lower projection from the base line touching the line below with consistency, and others will not dovetail at all.)

Margins

We must now distinguish between four additional features of the general spacing; the upper, lower, right hand and left hand margins.

Upper margin

Of these four we can control the upper margin in the most arbitrary fashion. We know that the possibility of an arbitrary modification of the act of writing is greatest at the beginning.

Left hand margin

A left hand margin which increases in width is as we know, a primary feature of speed and will be confirmed with a sentence impulse[1]:(see foot note#1)

Right hand margin.

Seldom will a wide right hand margin exist with the presence of a sentence impulse. These two factors, (sentence impulse and wide right margin) will rarely be found in a single script.

NOTE: (A wide right hand margin in connection with a strong sentence impulse can occur only as the result of an aesthetic restraint of this sentence impulse.)

Bottom margin

In either a single page manuscript or multiple pages, when the lines crowd together at the bottom of the page, regardless of the size of the margin, this crowding is due to ;(1) in a quick act of writing sentence impulse), a brief postponement of the sentence impulse in order to facilitate the space left for the remainder of the text (2) in a slow act of writing this crowding adjustment is attributed to a lack of adaptability. Either way, the analyst can clearly identify two different writers, one quickly written, and one written slowly.

Let us now compare two writings, one containing a higher degree of “negativism” than the other.

"A" Click photo for better view.

Figure “A” is a writing that borders on the furthest parameters of “normality”.

The writing is slowly written, has poor spacing and erratic pressure. The base lines vacillate. As we have already learned that the beginning of a writing is easier to alter (disguise) and in script “A” it can clearly be seen the artificiality ends on the 5^th line with the word “important”. The attempt to appear “normal” is overshadowed by the poor use of the Horizontal spacing where the writing clings to the end of the page. This writer must always be kept busy, has a fear of being alone, is pushy and is in constant need of someone being near by. The writer dwells on past experience and is apprehensive about the future.

In contrast, figure “B” reveals a different story.

"B" click thumb for view.

The writer of figure “B” has literally written off the writing surface. This writer is clearly telling the reader that “I have no boundaries. I have no guide lines. I will do as I please without concern for anyone. The base lines are erratic, the pen pressure is erratic, letters vary in size,

Also clearly telegraphed to the reader is that the writing was rehearsed by the addition of words that are squeezed in between lines 5 and 7.

Many of the oval letters are open at the bottom, an accurate indicator of one who can take a life without ever suffering any afterthought or remorse, no guilt or conscience.

As you learned earlier that you will read writing in the exact speed in which it was written. As you “try” to read “B” notice how you haltingly stumble through the content.

The vast majority of indicators of criminality you have thus far learned can be found in this writing.

Note: that not only has the writer literally written off the writing surface in both the left and right margins he allowed no room at the top or the bottom.

[1]Sentence impulse: The desire to complete the context and continue on to the next thought thereby neglecting to dot “i’s or cross the t’s until the journey to the next line begins which necessitates a movement across the page from right to left. The trail left by the writer will be “accent graves ( < ) for ”i” dots and left tending t-bar crossing and in cases the “ i” dots or t-bars are entirely excluded. Additional indicators of the line impulse writer will be the reduction of letters and words towards the end of the line, connectors that thread out and obliquity (slant) is increased and NEVER decreased..

Document Examination

Tue, 23 Oct 2007 07:55:41 PST

A Document is usually questioned because of it's origin, it's contents, or the circumstances and story regarding its production.

Today with the commonplace use of the Internet and the availability of personal information that is easily obtained by "tricksters" the opportunities for fraud are escalating at a frightening pace and no let up is in sight.

In an investigation of a questioned document the conscientious and competent specialist is the representative of justice and he should appreciate the responsibility of his position.

The majority of documents that come under scrunity today concern, not so much the actual document but, the writing on the document, specificaly the signature.

It would be a travesty indeed for one to undertake the identification of genuine vs. fradulent signature without at least the very basic information on how handwriting is transferred from the thought process to the actual document. It should be clearly understood that the chief source of error in reaching a scientific conclusion is the inability or lack of knowledge on the part of the examiner to fully navigate the facts.

To often the investigation of what is in fact a genuine signature or of what is in fact a crude forgery , is not taken up in a scientific investigation but is claimed to be one or the other on pure influence from others who are advocates of parties involved.

The examination of a signature is taken far to lightly and "expert opinions" have come from those who have claimed to have seen the writing before and give testimony on the grounds of familiarity. Knowledge of the complexities of an examination are a must for any "professional" who undertakes the responsibility of analysis.

The pages on this web site deal not with the document itself but focus on the signature, the physiology and psychology of handwriting. If one goes no farhter than to read the following information as to procedure in examining a "simple questioned signature" or writing, there will have to be agreement that to offer an opinion without due process would be aiding the crime under scrutiny.

Procedure: The thorough exainer gives careful attention to all of these questions no matter what the main inquiry may be. He later may be blamed for not finding what he was not asked to look for. The examiner must determine:

1 Is the signature genuie

2 Is the signature in a natural position

3 Does the writing touch other writing

4 Are witness writing genuine

5 Is the body of the document genuine

6 Does any of the writing appear disguised

7 Are the standards/exemplars genuine

8 Is the signature embossed on the back

9 Has the document been wet

10 Was the signature written 1st or last

11 How many times was the document folded

12 Was the signature written before or after folding

13 Which way was the document folded

14 Is the signature of a different design

15 Is the signature consistent with "time"

16 Is the ink consistent with "time"

17 Are there "watermarks"

18 If several sheets were used, are they the same size

19 Is paper ruled and consistent

20 Was the paper torn, burned or mutilated in any way

21 Is the paper of unusual size

22 Was the paper stapled (how many times)

23 Is paper soiled or crumpled

24 Is the paper unusual in any way

25 Are there discolorations

26 Was the paper torn or burned

27 Are there abrasions, chemical residue, substitutions or alterations

28 Is paper normal when viewed with transmitted light

29 Are there offsets of any kind

30 Where and what machine made all copies, same or different

31 Was the document wet in any way

32 Are there accidental pencil or other marks evident

33 What kind of machine process made copies (copy, press etc)

34 Were all documents made on same device

35 Was each sheet written sequentially

36 Is history consistent with dates

37 Are there added figures or words

38 Is text typed by a skilled operator

39 Are indentations , spacing, Margins, punctuation consistent

40 Can production of documents be verified

41 Is connection of pages consistent

42 Do perforations agree with stub

43 If carbon, is size consistent

44 Does printing or ruling conform

45 If document is a letter, does post mark, postage, stamps, envelope or manner of resealing or opening have any significance

46 Was writing blotted

47 Are there any indentations

48 Is sequence of ink, pin holes or cancellation marks consistent

49 Is rubber stamp consistent

50 Do eyelets, sates, fasteners have any significance

51 Are notary seals consistent

52 Do names, street addresses or events correlate or have any significance.

53 DID YOU CHECK FOR LATENT FINGER PRINTS.

FREE CD # 217. Consumers need to be aware of the covert dangers of IDENTITY THEFT, especially with the upcoming holidays.

THESE THUMB NAIL'S ARE FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PUBLIC. THE LATEST SCAMS WILL BE POSTED ON A MONTHLY BASIS.

Dangerous Receipt; The consumer should be aware that many retailers now use the receipt as a means of identification. The "bar code" contains enough information about the customer that if the receipt falls in to the wrong hands it can be devastating. Several retailers also have the signature of the customer imprinted on the same receipt. This makes the receipt twice as dangerous to your financial security. DON'T THROW YOUR RECEIPTS AWAY. SAVE THEM OR DESTROY THEM.

This thumbnail has some of the information that is on a standard credit report. As you can see, there is more than enough valuable information to do great damage to the individual.

Latest scam. The "CALL ME BACK" scam. You will receive a phone call where the caller tells the victim something along the lines of " We have been trying to get in touch with you. Please call 877-123-4567. It's important that you call." 99% of the times this is a scam. The caller want's your personal information or they will charge you an exhorbatant phone fee as the number you were given is an off shore line. Use caution and common sense.

The Internal Revenue Service is warning taxpayers to avoid
falling for another new variant of an IRS email scam in which
victims receive a fake email claiming they are the subjects of
a criminal probe by "IRS Criminal Investigation."

The email states that the recipient filed a false tax return
to the California Franchise Tax Board, and must click on a
link in the email -- or download an attachment -- to learn
more about the complaint.

Anyone clicking on the link or opening the attachment will
unleash a Trojan Horse that can take over the person's hard
drive and allow scammers to gain remote access to the
computer.

"The IRS [urges] people not to click the link in the email or
open the attachment. "Similar email variations suggest a
customer has filed a complaint against a company and the IRS
can act as an arbitrator. The latest versions appear aimed at
business taxpayers as well as individual taxpayers.

"The IRS does not send out unsolicited emails or ask for
detailed personal and financial information. Additionally,
the IRS never asks people for the PIN numbers, passwords or
similar secret access information for their credit card, bank
or other financial accounts."

http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=170894,00.html

The IRS asks that anyone receiving such emails forward them to
phishing@irs.gov

Action: If you receive ANY unsolicited email supposedly from
the IRS, DELETE it.

It's 100% guaranteed phony!

Fake Red Cross Telephone Scam Targets Military Spouses
<>~<>~<><>~<>~<><>~<>~<><>~<>~<><>~<>~<><>~<>~<><>~<>

In a particularly insidious scam, telephone callers pretending
to be Red Cross representatives are contacting military
families with relatives overseas, claiming that a family
member has been hurt, and that personal and financial
information must be supplied before treatment can begin.

Although many people are aware that identity thieves request
this kind of information over the telephone, military spouses
are certainly more vulnerable when they receive this kind of call.

Therefore, scammers have found that this is an effective way
to get military spouses to give personal and financial
information that they would not usually consider giving out.
After all, they want to make sure their spouse is treated as
quickly as possible.

The Red Cross has issued a press release about this scam here.

http://www.redcross.org/pressrelease/0,1077,0_314_6732,00.html

It reads, in part:

"The American Red Cross has learned about a new scam targeting
military families. This scam takes the form of false
information to military families as described below:

"The caller (young-sounding, American accent) calls a military
spouse and identifies herself as a representative from the Red
Cross. The caller states that the spouse's husband (not
identified by name) was hurt while on duty in Iraq and was
med-evacuated to a hospital in Germany.

"The caller stated they couldn't start treatment until
paperwork was accomplished, and that in order to start the
paperwork they needed the spouse to verify her husband's
Social Security number and date of birth. In this case, the
spouse was quick to catch on and she did not provide any
information to the caller.

"The American Red Cross representatives typically do not
contact military members/dependents directly and almost always
go through a commander or first sergeant channels. Military
family members are urged not to give out any personal
information over the phone if contacted by unknown/unverified
individuals, to include confirmation that your spouse is
deployed."

Action: Do NOT give out personal information if you receive
this type of call. If you have a family member serving
overseas, remember that the American Red Cross will NOT
contact you directly, unless you first contact them.

This isn't the first time scammers have posed as members of
the Red Cross or other charitable organizations -- and sadly
we know it will not be the last time.

You can find out more about how to protect yourself from other
fake charity scams here.

That's a wrap for this issue. Wishing you a great week!
