Before and after money moves

Three guides on checking a seller and the money before a deal commits, and on the first hour after a payment goes wrong.

  1. How seller impersonation fraud works on vacant land

    How a fake owner sells land they do not own, and the checks on the county record that catch it before money moves.

  2. How to verify who you are dealing with before money moves

    The registries, regulators and bank lookups that check a seller, a company or a buyer's money through sources the other side cannot edit.

  3. The first hour after a wire goes to the wrong account

    The calls and reports that follow a wire sent to a fraudster, starting with the two steps federal guidance puts first.
