follow up a chromatogram that appears on two different lots is forged. not sloppy, forged

for the archive relabelling and marking up is retail, not fraud. it is a risk profile question, not a crime

the watchlist is pinned and maintained. add anything you find with a screenshot, we shall see

a second payment because the first "did not clear" is the pattern. there is no first payment to clear

report it even if nothing happens. the pattern is the value, not the individual case
