One of my friends decided that it would be fine to make some “corrections” on one of the teacher recommendations. She even forged the signature in photoshop and everything looks amazing.

The problem is that I really think that she is going to get caught even though the spelling and sentence structure corrections were minor. Let alone the fact that I never even got to my rec. letters, I think hers was simply amazing and was not really worth the risk . What do you think? I am telling her not to do it. I am sure there is a mechanism that schools use to verify things like that. maybe they even send scans to the teachers, who knows; they need to scan everything they receive anyway.

any ideas?
