My passport was impounded, unfortunately.
People who enter a country illegally and then claim asylum status are unlikely to be in any position to keep their business running.
You could go to the USA, Canada, or EU country embassy and see if they can help you with asylum etc.
I would recommend Canada.
Even if it were easy as a pie, OP is worried about being convicted of a 'crime' which is not considered a crime in most of the developed world. So, he has a chance of being granted asylum.
Faking a passport, however, IS a very serious crime and it would be something ridiculously stupid to do.
