Top 10 Tips to Discover Mortgage Payoff Fraud

Description:
Melissa Jay Murphy, The Fund’s General Counsel, and Robert Baker,  Senior Vice President and Deputy General Counsel-Claims, Old Republic National Title Insurance Company, present Top 10 Tips to Discover Mortgage Payoff Fraud.  Cyber thieves are targeting wire transfers in real estate transactions in increasingly more sophisticated ways.  Diverted loan payoffs (mortgage payoff fraud) are particularly troublesome because the theft may not be evident in time to mitigate or reverse the loss of trust account funds.

Attorneys have a legal and ethical responsibility to safeguard escrowed funds. This seminar will identify clues an attorney can look for to discern whether mortgage payoff fraud is being attempted in connection with a real estate transaction and provide strategies to prevent such losses.
