Protect yourself from WIRE FRAUD!

Scam artists are real! Protect your real estate transaction from wire fraud‼️

These steps may prevent falling victim to wire scam:

STOP: If you receive an email or text with wiring instructions, do not reply. If you receive a phone call with wiring instructions, tell the caller you’re going to hang up to verify the information.


CALL: To make sure you have received a legitimate request, call a trusted phone number you have used before to contact the lender or escrow officer or use a number written in the contract. Do NOT use a number listed in the email sent to you or call the number that texted you. There could be a fraudster on the other end of the call, ready to trick you into diverting funds to their account.


VERIFY: After calling a trusted number, talk to the person and verify that there has been a change to wiring instructions.



And remember, I am always here for you!
