4. Will the recorder's office be able to verify the e-notarized document is legitimate, or fraudulen

Answer:  It is not the responsibility of the recorder to determine if a document is fraudulent.  As for the legitimacy of an electronic document, the Uniform Real Property Electronic Recording Act (Sec. 695.27, F.S.) establishes the standards that will guide a recorder in determining the document’s legitimacy and entitlement to recording.
