This Scam Is So Simple
Some scams are so simple, it seems that only a simpleton would fall for them.
Every time that I buy a property, I receive a letter in the mail offering me an opportunity to send the scammer $127.95. In exchange for my $127.95, PROPERTY RECORDS will send me an "official copy" of my deed to the house that I just bought.
There must be new homeowners that are foolish enough to send in the $127.95. I suppose that the new homeowners don't know they brought home a copy of the deed from closing. As long as there has been real estate, there have been scammers.
King Solomon, the richest man that ever lived, told us to "Seek wise counsel in all matters" That is certainly good advice. If there is something that you do not understand, seek advice. There is no shame in asking advice.
