Kanye West had his signature forged and it was an expensive deal. TMZ reports that someone who allegedly knew Kanye acted as his representative to perform at New York Fashion Week next Monday. Philipp Plein is organizing the event and the phony representative negotiated a $1 million deal for Kanye to do a concert.

The suspect forged Kanye’s signature on the contract and received a $900,000 advance for the show.  So, there’s no Kanye performance and Plein is out of the money.

The crook is believed to be a former friend of West and a past associate of G.O.O.D. Music.
