Money & property
The property deal that exists only online
A social post or platform listing promotes a below-market home, rental, presale development or supposed bank or court auction. The seller may use a false identity and forged papers.
What they want
An advance deposit and personal or financial information before the property or seller is verified.
YOUR NEXT MOVE
Check through another route.
Confirm the seller, developer or agent independently. Verify title, permits and registry records with official sources, and have an accredited notary, lawyer or real-estate professional review the transaction before paying.
