Looking here, at the comparative screenshots:

He admitted to wrong doing with very little pushing. No one threatened him directly. He "backdated" since it was the expedient thing to do, while claiming moral highground by not rating?
Feels wrong. There is nothing that would save this person from charges if it was found later, and admits too much.
Add the typeface, kerning, word breaks, superscript issues (remember, I'm in junk mail). It is VERY difficult to match original text layout when reproducing it on the computer. We might spend hours on a single paragraph if it really needs to be done. It rarely does. If they need the EXACT text/layout, we use a graphics of the original, rather than try to create it ourselves.
If this person REALLY duplicated using word defaults, then it seals it. Fake.
Do the test yourself. I'm not going to bother.
