SCAM UPDATES AND PROPERTY OWNER REGISTRATIONS

 

Not to sound redundant, but we want to make sure everyone is being made aware of the services that many of the County Recorder's Offices are providing to property owners.

 

It's next to impossible to keep in front of these scammers. Names of property owners and phone numbers are changing constantly with these thieves. If you find that this is happening you can do a few things:

 

  1. Notify the property owner so they are put on notice that someone is trying to have their property listed. The property owner should also call the County Land Department. Some counties are subscribing to services that watch for these things. (See below)

  2. Report to Federal Trade Commission online: IdentityTheft.gov or call 877-438-4338

  3. Contact the local authorities

  4. Some Property Owners are going as far as having to place a sign on the property that their property is NOT for sale.
