When I asked my Korean girlfriend to call my Korean bank to do a money transfer they did more verifications and checks than the DEI third world morons running our executive branch:
“can you pass the phone to him so we can hear him speaking?”
You'd be amazed how many things in the world still operate based on nothing more than "please find a scan of my signature attached to this email" sent from the correct email address.
In the US the only things that require a witness is the deed and the mortgage if you get one. Terms of the sale are just signatures.
I sold a house having never even physically met the guy who sold it for me. They sent me a stack of paperwork to fill out, one page of which was "where do you want the money transferred" and I could have entered anything there and the money would have been sent to that account. Then I sent that stack of paperwork back in the mail, praying that no one along the way replaced that one sheet of paper with one with a different account number.
