Fake reliving letter with sign - company asking for a lot of money or else they will proceed legally

Hello please help me out, I have worked in a organisation for 8 months and I left job with personal reasons and I have a done a reliving letter with logo and sign and everything. I got selected for new one and I have provided all documents but I haven't reported and I haven't joined in that organisation but they sent for verification to old company and they are asking for a lot of money or else they will proceed legally I'm just confused and mentally I'm dying please suggest me best way to come out of this.

Hi,
What compelled you to prepare fake relieving letter ? After 8 months of service why didn't you get relieved properly ? What you did is forgery. Please don't do this in future. It would be better to share your future employer that you don't have relieving letter rather presenting false relieving letter.
Talk to your ex-employer and try to solve it amicably. If your ex-employer communicate to your new company about fake certificate, maximum you may not get that employment. Otherwise I don't think ex-employer pursue on this legally even though they can. So try to close else leave it.

As you sow so you reap. You need to stay silent.............................>wait & see.

Happened is happened take apologizes from the previous employer and close it. They may not go legal case if you apologized. Future wont d o such type of mistakes.
