Creating fraudulent documents has become easier as technology has improved. With just a computer, printer, scanner and Photoshop software, fabricating fake paystubs can be done at home. Even online paystub services like stubsamples.com and speedystub.com generate paystubs based on the information put in by the user for an inexpensive fee. While these services might seem like a good idea to applicants who are independent contractors, business owners, students and entrepreneurs, those outside services are extremely relaxed on their requirements for accuracy. Protect yourself from the possibility of accepting counterfeit paystubs by cross-referencing the information listed on the applicant’s credit report. Another step is to do an online search of the employer listed on the rental application and call to perform a verbal verification.
