WireSafe - Protect yourself from wire fraud
Wire fraud involves a hacker gaining access to an email account and posing as a trusted party involved in your real estate transaction. This could be someone pretending to be your real estate agent, loan officer, title agent, or even an attorney.
Think you may have been a victim of wire fraud? What to do:
- Immediately contact your bank and inform them of the situation.
- Report the crime to the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3).
- Report the crime to law enforcement.
Every second counts- you must act quickly!
