How do you avoid one of these scams?
First, never be pressured to sign a
contract. Take your time. If it is such a good service
they will offer it tomorrow, despite their pressure to
sign today. Suggest that you must have your lawyer
review it (even if you don't have a lawyer). If the
person says a lawyer wouldn't understand this or
wouldn't approve of it - you know you are dealing with a
scam artist.
Second, never sign away your ownership to
the property. People who put you in this position are
only maneuvering to take away your home.
Third, never make a mortgage payment to
anyone but the lender. If the scam artist suggests that
they will pay the mortgage be assured that they will
not.
Fourth, do not sign any document with
blanks or lines that are not filled in. Scamsters will
later add language to your detriment.
Finally, always seek the counsel of a
good, local lawyer. Their job is to protect you from
ever being scammed in these ways. And in this current
environment there are plenty of scams to know about and
avoid.
