Keeping our clients safe is always our top priority, so we wanted to share some tips from CertifID, who is dedicated to preventing real estate wire fraud.
They’ve recently seen cases of real estate agents being phished for social media credentials, so here’s what to look out for:
-An “investor”approached you stating that they require the use of CertifID to verify a transaction.
-They will send a link to a website asking you to log in using your social media account.
You should never need to supply your social media credentials, so always be wary of this ask! If you ever have any questions or want more info reach out to your real estate attorney.
