Security Awareness
Protect Your Transaction From Wire Fraud.
Real estate transactions can be targets for email and wire fraud. Fraudulent messages may appear to come from a trusted party and may attempt to change payment or wiring instructions.
Verify Before Sending
Independently confirm wiring instructions using a known and trusted telephone number before sending funds.
Be Alert to Changes
Treat unexpected changes to wiring instructions, account information, or payment requests with caution.
Do Not Rely on Email Alone
Do not assume wiring information is authentic merely because it appears in an email or existing email thread.
