Wire Fraud is on the rise and is a very real threat. Marc D Sherman & Colleagues PC and its Of Counsel Attorneys and staff spend significant time representing residential and commercial buyers and sellers in a variety of real estate transactions. Our Firm typically does not send wire transfer instructions for external purposes, such as real estate earnest money deposits or for funding real estate closings.
If you receive an email from our office including wire transfer information, call and confirm that it is intentionally sent by us and that the information is accurate BEFORE using the instructions.
If Wire Transfer Instructions are provided to you by a third-party, such as a title company or lender, it is recommended that you (1) confirm that the email is from a legitimate, authorized source, and (2) if so, then follow the steps that are stated in the email communication in order to ensure that the communication is legitimate and to confirm the instructions are valid, or contact our office.
For further questions, you can reach one of our Attorneys or staff at the Contact Information shown in this website.
