FBI Issues Warning for Vacant Property Owners. We've seen several cases like that with listed properties for sale. We also see a new thing: fake buyers sending phishing links with bogus LOI's or Offers on land and commercial listing. When in doubt, check directly with the Broker of Record (info on DRE licensing website) of the Brokerage which purportedly sends the LOI or Offer.
Scammers are approaching title companies by posing as a legitimate parcel owners to sell the properties.
