You must immediately hire expert advocate in this regard. Tomorrow if any cheque gets bounced or payment is unjustified then you will be in trouble. You must get your complaint drafted by an advocate n submit the same to your company via email, to your bank and to the concerned police station. Kindly b in touch

Legally advised, you should file a case for forged signature being applied under your name and an FIR instituted against the person who has done so. Just informing the management of the company will not do any benefit. How is your relation with the company will determine the impact on you
