Wire Fraud is rampant in our everchanging world. Fraudsters are hacking into unsecure email accounts and stealing information on real estate and business transactions. As Escrow Agent, we are responsible for ensuring your funds are safely protected – that is why it is so important that you read the following information. Staying informed is your best line of defense.
We NEVER change our wiring instructions. DO NOT accept requests to change to wiring instructions via email or fax.
We have found that Gmail, Yahoo and AOL email accounts are the email accounts hacked the most. Due to the unsecured nature of those email accounts, hackers have found a way to steal information, mirror email responses that look or appear to be legitimate, and attempt to intercept a wire transfer before it’s initiated. We DO NOT wire any funds without receiving proper Disbursement Instructions.
We ask that you please verify wiring instructions with one of our team members before initiating your wire to Jackwin Legal, P.A. or Spectrum Title Services, LLC. We may be reached directly to confirm wiring instructions at 954-727-3347.
All of our email accounts are encrypted. Our wiring instructions are sent in PDF format to clients needing to wire funds for a transaction our firms may be handling. Please ensure that the email you are receiving from us contains the following domains: jackwinlegal.com, @spectrumtitle.com, @spectrumtitlellc.com or @outbound.qualia.com.
Qualia is the encrypted real estate closing software that Spectrum Title Services, LLC utilizes. Emails sent from Qualia come from @outbound.qualia.com and contain the Qualia logo and say “Sent from Qualia.” Any emails sent from domains not listed above should be disregarded. BE AWARE. BE ALERT.
