What is Property Scams?
Property fraud occurs when scammers deceive buyers or renters into paying for a property that doesn't exist, isn't for sale, or belongs to someone else. With the rise of online listings, it has become easier for criminals to copy legitimate ads and pose as landlords or agents to steal substantial deposits.
Common Property Scams
Fake Rental Listings
Ads for beautiful apartments at "too good to be true" prices. The "landlord" asks for a deposit before viewing.
Payment Interception
Hackers intercept emails between buyers and lawyers, changing the bank details for the deposit transfer.
Overseas Investor Scam
Scammers claim to be overseas owners who can't meet in person, demanding money via wire transfer/Western Union.
Title Fraud
Criminals use stolen identities to forge documents and transfer the ownership of a property to themselves.
Can Your Deposit Be Recovered?
If you paid via bank transfer, swift action is crucial. We work with banks to trigger "fraud indemnity" or recall processes. Because property deposits are usually large sums, banks have specific protocols for these investigations. We help you present the necessary evidence (emails, fake contracts, land registry checks) to prove the recipient account is fraudulent.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I verify if a landlord is real?
Always check the national land registry to see who owns the property. Never pay any money until you have viewed the property inside.
I spoofed bank transfer. Is it reversible?
Bank transfers are harder to reverse than credit cards, but not impossible. If reported immediately, the receiving bank can freeze the account before the scammer moves the funds.
