  1. According to a recent report, Florida ranks among the highest states for reported cases of title insurance fraud, affecting thousands of individuals each year.

You might be wondering, “How can I protect myself from falling victim to title insurance fraud?” The answer lies in proactive communication and verification of wire instructions. Always take the extra step to confirm wire instructions directly with your closer at the title company. By establishing this vital line of communication, you can significantly reduce the risk of fraudulent activity.
