Why am I getting an error message saying my PR is faked or forged?

Yes this generally means that the PageRank for your page actually belongs to a different URL or domain name instead. Perhaps your page was parked or redirected to another URL at one time and the PageRank for that URL bled over after the parking/re-direction was removed. You can confirm this by performing the following google search on your domain:

info:www.domain.com

where www.domain.com is the domain name you are trying to add to your Backlinks.com Publisher account. If the results show a different domain name in the indexed listing then the PR is faked/forged. It actually belongs to the domain name in their index instead. Thus we can allow that domain name to be added to our inventory but not the domain name you are trying to add. Sorry for the inconvenience.
