A woman in Sichuan province's Chengdu city allegedly hired several people to imitate her mother in order to illegally sell her mom's properties from 2005 to 2009, reports the Chengdu Business Daily.

According to the Chengdu Public Security Bureau (PSB), the daughter submitted counterfeit documents in order to gain notarization authority or the sale of her mother's homes. After succeeding in being able to sell the first house in 2005, she secured a mortgage for another two homes totaling $410,000 yuan (US$66,460) from the Bank of China and the Agriculture Bank of China in June and July in 2009. Then on July 28, 2009, she used the same tactic to sell another of her mother's homes and that time mortgaged it for $240,000 yuan (US$38,904).

The mother, upon discovering what was taking place, filed an appeal to the courts hoping it could nullify her daughter's transactions. The Chengdu judicial court, however, dismissed the case."The woman hired by the daughter to imitate the mother had an ID that was too good as a counterfeit," said Yang Dehuei, a representative of the Chengdu judicial court, which was why the Chengdu judicial court dimissed the case. Also, Yang said that in the opinion of the court, the homes purchased by the third parties are legally binding and the court needed to help protect them as well.
