“Wire fraud continues to affect the real estate industry, now with direct attacks on homebuyers. Using spoofed email addresses and phone numbers, cybercriminals ask the homebuyer to send deposit money or closing funds to a different bank account. If you receive a phone call, text message or email stating that the transfer instructions have changed, STOP. Immediately contact someone using a trusted phone number (not the number on the message or caller ID) and verify those instructions before transferring funds. Many criminals use a sense of urgency to trick victims into believing that funds must be sent immediately. Don’t send your money under pressure.” (Excerpt from materials from Attorneys Title – The Fund)
