PROTECT YOUR HOME AND INVESTMENTS FROM SCAMMERS AND FRAUDSTERS.
In recent weeks a homeowner tragically became a victim of this and unfortunately lost his home. We want to make sure that everyone is aware on how this can be avoided.
It is apparent that this isn't an irregular occurrence. This is actually becoming more frequent and more common. The Land Registry paid out £3.5m in compensation last year for scams but said it relied on the solicitors overseeing the sale to detect fraudulent activity.
Solicitors do play a key part in spotting signs and fraudulent activity, however, this will already be quite far down the process in terms of selling and nearing completion. We believe getting ahead of this vital. The Land Registry recognises this as well and has a feature where you can be notified about any changes to any address. This will help to identify very early on if there is any suspicious activity and catching it very early.
