The FBI’s Boston Division is warning property owners and real estate agents about an increase in reports of quit-claim deed fraud, in which unsuspecting owners have no idea their land was sold right out from under them.
Also known as home title theft, the schemes involve fraudsters who forge documents to record a phony transfer of property ownership.
Then, the fraudsters can sell the land or home, take a mortgage on it, or rent it out to make a profit — with he actual owners forced to head to court to reclaim their property.
According to the FBI, there have been 2,301 victims of this fraud from 2019 through 2023, with the victims reporting losing more than $61.5 million.
In New Hampshire, 239 victims lost more than $4 million.
Officials say the reported losses are likely much higher because many people don’t know where to report it, are embarrassed, or have not yet realized they have been scammed.“Folks across the region are having their roots literally pulled out from under them and are being left with no place to call home,” said Jodi Cohen, special agent in charge of the FBI Boston Division. “They’re suffering deeply personal losses that have inflicted a significant financial and emotional toll, including shock, anger, and even embarrassment.
“We are urging the public to heed this warning and to take proactive steps to avoid losing your property. Anyone who is a victim of this type of fraud should report it to us.”
The FBI listed some common fraudulent scenarios:
• Scammers comb through public records to find vacant parcels of land and properties that don’t have a mortgage or other lien and then impersonate the landowner, asking a real estate agent to list the property. Homeowners whose properties have been listed for sale don’t know it until they’re alerted, sometimes after the sales have gone through.
• Family members, often the elderly, are targeted by their own relatives or close associates who convince them to transfer the property into their name for their own financial gain.
• Fraudsters known as “title pirates” who use fraudulent or forged deeds and other documents to convey title to a property. Often these scams go undetected until after the money has been wired to the scammer in the fraudulent sale and the sale has been recorded.
The FBI Boston is working with property owners, realtors, title companies, and insurance companies to help stop these fraud scheme, but they say people have grown more accustomed to conducting real estate transactions through email and over the phone, which creates more opportunities for scammers.
People are urged to report fraud and suspected fraud to the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center at www.ic3.gov.

EEEGGGGGGGGGGGGGGSSSS!!!!!!
In ohio, i think you need title insurance if you have a mortgage. the insurer would check to see the chain of ownership. I would also imagine most real estate contracts should have that type of language in it. agents should probably look at the property ownership chain, which is a public record, before they list the property also.
No greater scam than the Covid vaccine scam. @everyone should be aware of the reality no matter how uncomfortable it makes you feel. These are not minimal increases. 200+% more likely!!!!!
As an unjabbed pureblood, somehow I survived the winter of death and suffering predicted by Pedo Joe Biden.
. If you bought into the scam, there are lots of purported detox treatments for the jabbed. I can't speak to the effectiveness, but do some research. It might be worth it.
If there are any pansies from Patsfans.com lurking who whined to Ian about my dangerous spread of conspiracy vax theories, this message is for you. Congratulations. You injected poison time bombs into your body. Tick tock, tick tock, douche bags.

Are these only for the MRNA shots? I got the J&J, but had some weird shit going on with my heart for about six months after the jab when I would do cardio or Muay Thai/BJJ.
MRNA.
J&J had its own issues though. By the way, Pfizer stock is nose diving. Judgment day may be imminent. We'll see.
Whichever shot, be grateful you only got one. Everything I have read says the odds after boosters are really ugly. One and done is so much better. BUT, there are lots of scientists/doctors who recommend detox treatments for the poisoned. Again, I can't speak to those.
I got the first 2 Moderna shots when they were doing mass vaccination sites run by national guard and state
That was like 5 years ago so hopefully all clear
Never got any boosters
It wasn't long after I got my Moderna shot that I had to get my pacemaker. My heart wasn't beating enough times per minute and it was causing me to pass out. I hit the floor 5 times before I got my pacemaker. It was kind of scary. Once I had missed the kitchen table by only a couple of inches.
Only one shot, no boosters?
Well I guess technically 1 booster
I got the initial Moderna shot and they gave me a card to come back 6 months later for the 2nd one
But never got any after that initial double dose
