That may be so, but reporting it would go a long way toward the police and prosecutor believing he had no active participation in it. So he has a choice to make. First, he can stay silent and hope that the fraud is not discovered or, if it is, that the prosecutor and police will believe he wasn't involved in it. Second, he can report it to the authorities or at least inform the landlord the documents are false, which should clear him of suspicion of being involved. Finally, he can try covering up for the girlfriend and thus put himself in jeopardy of conviction on that offense even if he doesn't go down for involvement in the crime itself.
well, I can’t suggest the guy rat out his girlfriend for something like this.

But regardless, unless he somehow participates in the crime he is not guilty of committing a crime as page1067 states he would be. That was my point.
