I am unsure what an "unlicensed" notary is. If a notary's commission has expired, that person is no longer a notary and cannot legally notarize documents. If a notary with an expired-commission notarizes a document, the expired-commission notary can face fines or jail-time.

Asking an expired notary to work, via email or otherwise, is not a crime and does not necessarily constitute an attempt at fraud. If an uncommissioned notary is soliciting work, that person is committing fraud.
Legal notary stamps aren't for sale. You can find online sources for obtaining notary services, but most states require an in-person visit to a licensed notary public.

Notaries do not notarize documents. They notarize signatures, and they are only permitted in the state by which they are licensed. It does not matter what the document is. If the document is signed in Pennsylvania in the presence of a Pennsylvania notary, that notary can notarize the signature. If the document is signed in any other state, or outside of the presence of the notary, the notary cannot notarize the signature.
Yes, a notary public is typically a licensed individual authorized by the state government to witness and authenticate signatures on documents. They are responsible for verifying the identity of signatories and ensuring the legality of the documents they notarize.
Notaries don't notarize documents. They notarize signatures. So long as the signature occurs in the presence of the notary in the state by which the notary is licensed, they may notarize the signature.

That would depend on what state you live in. In New York State, you must be licensed and you must also pass a Notary Test. You can contact the County Clerk in your State and County for direction.
