At Landvex we've been lumping too much under "forged". In practice I keep seeing four different situations:
- A wholly fabricated document
- A genuine document that was later altered
- A genuine document whose content was already false — the issuer wrote something untrue
- A genuine, unaltered document used in a misleading way
Only the first two are classic forgery. The last two can sail through any vision model and still be exactly what a bank or authority gets wrong.
So… do you model these as first-class problem types from day one? Or start with visual/file integrity and bolt the rest on later?
Also: for 3 and 4, the system can't really decide from the file alone. You need external checks, case context, sometimes a human. How do you keep the API honest about that, instead of pretending a model "scored" something it never saw?
Curious whether this taxonomy matches what others use, or if we're over-splitting.
