When you buy, sell or refinance a home, you'll be required to submit personal information to your lender and/or settlement or escrow agent. This information may include Social Security numbers, bank account numbers and credit and loan account numbers. Unfortunately, would-be fraudsters sometimes attempt to steal personal information and even money through real estate transactions.

OPEN THIS FLYER FOR CYBER FRAUD RED FLAGS TO WATCH FOR. IF YOU SEE ANY OF THESE RED FLAGS, PLEASE CONTACT YOUR REALTOR AND CLOSING AGENT.
