When I've seen the unusual title abstracting, I copy the document and note what I've seen.  As everyone on this board knows, it is up to the attorney to make the final decision.  I've done my part in bringing it to the review attorney's attention (and I document my finding and reporting so it doesn't come back to bite ME; i.e., I told you about it in writing and here's my proof).

FYI.  Years ago I attended a fraud seminar by the Canadian Mounted Police (really cool :: ).  It focused on signature fraud.  Key was that signatures change over time and health. (How many girls dot i's with smiley faces or hearts these days LOL)  The example used was a question on ONE forgery; however, more than 20 handwriting samples over 15 years were examined. Why over time and so many:  very few looked the same. Of the 20, 4 were forgeries. The points were 1) identical signatures are not identical, 2) only an expert can tell, 3) you need many samples over many years ... had only recent samples been used, the forgery may have been considered the "real signature" by an "expert" because it matched 4 other signatures (which through this investigation were discovered to also be forgeries, rather than the "true" signatures).

Not an attorney, but from a paralegal who works with attorneys perspective: if there is no "claim" then the title company may just note it and insure over it; i.e., the "no one was harmed; no one cares" theory.  Could be at the woman's direction someone else signed her name and the "standard" notarization block wasn't changed to reflect it.
