Hey @VK15 

The one proof point is COC certificate of completion which you should ask them to provide. Which will detail how and when it was signed alongside with additional details. If you signed it from your DocuSign account a copy of the document would be saved in it. Without a DocuSign account you should have received email notifications.

You can also validate the actual document in any PDF reader, e.g. Adobe Acrobat Reader to verify that this actually as a DocuSign transaction and it has not been tampered with by checking the platform seal.

Thanks!

Pawan, I just tried to verify signatures but couldn’t figure out how.  I’d like to verify visible signatures, but it’s greyed out.

Thanks!

 

I just posted a reply, but don’t see it.???

Trying again without screenshot.

Pawan, “You can also validate the actual document in any PDF reader, e.g. Adobe Acrobat Reader to verify that this actually as a DocuSign transaction and it has not been tampered with by checking the platform seal.”

I clicked on “Use a certificate” in Reader and then validating etc. was greyed out. 

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Signature Validation

Thanks, Pawan, I have NO idea why nothing works for me.   My document doesn’t even have any red box and I already got at least 20 hours of research into this, read countless articles and just finally found this place here today.

I’m 66 years old, designed my own websites, html, css, C, Basic, ….

Now I’m just the village idiot. 

I can only recommend to others to never EVER sign anything electronically as there is ZERO support from DocuSign and corporate fraud is rampant.  Companies just make up documents such as addenda, legally required disclosures, etc. with impunity. :(

Have no idea why this is legal.

Anyway, sorry for the rant, so much frustration, have no idea why I can’t simply upload a doc to determine authenticity.  But then again, as I’m constantly asked to subscribe to whatever “plan” and can’t even figure out how to see docs I signed only two years ago … follow the money!

 

Hey @ChristineAZ, I am really sorry for your inconvenience. Do you have DocuSign Account? if yes then you can raise the Support ticket. and then DocuSign Support will help you out. 

@Pawan Gangwani Thanks, I do have an account, and will try again to get some support.

Just don’t understand why Docusign actively covers up fraud by huge companies, why I have to have an account, why it says I have 30 days left, why I can’t figure out how to contact support.

Does the FBI have to have an account to get some answers?

There ought to be a RICO prosecution against all involved in this fraud. 

Docusign is deliberately NOT including its name in responses from security and I accidentally deleted the email from “Security Account” as that’s the exact name many scammers use.

It seems impossible to get anything but automated CRAP to make me waste my time until I give up. 

While Docusign reaps the profits.

Hi @ChristineAZ,

Thank you for making us aware of this situation.

Due to privacy and security regulations Docusign Support is unable to access the documents or Certificate of Completion in an envelope. Taking this into consideration, the sender will be the only available source to gain access to the Certificate of Completion, if you are missing the original envelope access link.

Because of this reason, the best course of action will be having the party interested in holding you accountable to this agreement attempt to process their complaint through a court, in this way you can force them to provide the Certificate of Completion as part of the documentation needed to verify that you actually signed this document.

In most legal contexts, or high value transactions it will be required to have an extra recipient verification method to actually validate the signer’s identity, such as Phone Authentication, Id Verification,  or the use of a Digital Signature that will have your identity validated by a Trusted Signature Provider. More information on this topic can be found, here:
