| If you need a copy of your deed don't be scammed by this company |
You may have received a mailing regarding your deed and I don't want you to be duped by a mailing from the Records Recovery Service or Local Records Office.
These letters offer to provide residents with a copy of their deed for $87, $89 or even $90+.
Do not send these entities money or request their assistance in obtaining a copy of your deed. THIS IS A SCAM!
Deeds are recorded in the Lake County Recorder of Deeds office and copies are available for $1 per page. If you are a Senior Citizen or Veteran there is no charge for the copies. I don't want my resident to be scammed by this. Just call
847.377.2575 to request a copy of your deed.
This is what the scam document looks like.

| When do I need to take my car for an emission test and when is my vehicle sticker expiring? |
The State of Illinois is no longer mailing Vehicle emissions testing reminders. To find out when you need to have your emissions tested, call 847 758-3400. Press #3 and they will ask you for your license plate number.
You won't be able to get your vehicle sticker if you are not compliant with the emissions test. For those of you who wait til the last minute to purchase the sticker, I wanted you to know that you could be out of compliance with the emission test and not know it. No more big yellow mailer to remind you!
Want to be reminded by email that your vehicle sticker is expiring? The state no longer sends notices by mail.
Paperless License Plates Renewal Notices is the convenient and secure way for Illinois motorists to go green and receive their notice by e-mail. To receive your license plates renewal by e-mail, click here and enter your Registration ID and PIN located your current registration card. If you do not have a renewal notice or a current registration card, please call the Public Inquiry Division at 800-252-8980 to obtain your Registration ID and PIN number.
By not mailing the plate renewal, the State of Illinois is saving $450,000 a month. The down side is that people are getting tickets because they forget! |
