    Simple any Notary that signs documents pertaining to Real-estate must have the person present and an attorney. And who ever does so with out them present needs to be arrested and pay restitution, legal fees. Since the issue is a simple notarization stamp.

    Once they find out their home has been stolen what's been done about it were they able to recoup their home? Why hasn't the governors or the politicians or people who are in charge of Philadelphia done anything about this every state government is responsible and they should actually get this person's homes back that they stole. We shouldn't have to keep paying and paying out of our pocket now we have to have home title lock insurance? How much more are y'all going to squeeze the blood out of us? This is crazy

      @@barbierockscollectbleisbac1176 You are absolutely correct. There is so much I have recently learned in regards to mortgages, liens, register of wills, public notaries, realty, brokers, and appraisers. So much of what I've discovered is based on fraud. For instance it's nothing for someone to become an appraiser which in turn could be used to inflate value of proprties. The job of the recorder of deeds is to stamp not to investigate or even question what they're stamping. The entire system has been self serving not public serving as they were initially designed to be. This is everywhere too, not just Philly. I believe deep down positive change is coming. I believe it because I am, as well as you, a part of it.

All you need is a piece of tape to grab the fingerprint off of something (like a coffee cup), run it through a scanner (like the one on your computer at home), and now it's a digital file you can put on anything through the magic of programs such as photoshop.
      The only way to keep the problem at bay is to monitor your title with the county records office online. It's real easy to spot. If the name on the property isn't yours, you know automatically something is amiss. Then you call your mortgage company and have them recommend to you a real estate lawyer (they know the sharp ones) and you go to work fixing this.

    Question: I keep seeing ads for services claiming to protect people from home title fraud or deed theft. Is this even a prevalent problem? Is there an easy way for me to confirm that my title is clean rather than paying for a service?
    Answer: In 2008, the FBI identified “house stealing” as the “latest scam on the block.” Since then, it has popped up periodically in cities such as Chicago, Dallas, Detroit, Los Angeles, New York City and Philadelphia. Is it a growing problem? That’s hard to know because the FBI doesn’t break it out separately in its crime statistics. The American Land Title Association doesn’t have data on the problem, either. “I suspect that companies that offer title-monitoring service use that [the claim] as a marketing strategy,” says Jeremy Yohe, vice president of communications at the association.
    13 Tax Breaks for Homeowners and Home Buyers
    The scheme works like this: Fraudsters pick out a house-often a second home, rental, vacation home or vacant house-to “steal.” Using personal information gleaned from the internet or elsewhere, they assume your identity or claim to represent you. Armed with forged signatures and fake IDs, they file paperwork with the county’s register of deeds to transfer ownership of your property to themselves or a third party. They then sell the home or borrow against it, stealing your equity. When they fail to make payments on a loan secured by your property, you could end up in foreclosure or be unable to sell, refinance or pass the home on to heirs.
    Advertisement - Article continues below
    Home Title Lock is one of the services that says it will monitor your home’s deed 24/7 to prevent title fraud; it costs $15 a month ($150 annually, two years for $298). But you can protect yourself-for free-by periodically checking your property record on the website of your county’s register of deeds. Look for deeds that you or your attorney didn’t prepare or sign, or loans you didn’t take out, as well as liens of contractors, subcontractors, real estate brokers or attorneys whose services you didn’t hire, or court filings, says the Cook County (Chicago) recorder of deeds.
    Even better, many counties now provide a consumer notification service. Register for free, and you’ll quickly receive an e-mail or text any time a document is recorded on your property.
    The New York City department of finance advises homeowners to make sure the appropriate authorities have the correct mailing address for you or the person who should receive notices about your property. In your absence from your home, have mail forwarded or ask someone you trust to pick up mail or visit your home. Visit a vacant house periodically to ensure that no one has taken up residence illegally.
    Advertisement - Article continues below
    You may get clues when title fraud occurs: You stop receiving your water bill or property tax assessment or bill, for example. Utility bills on a vacant property rise suddenly, or you find people living there. You stop receiving your tenants’ rent payments and learn that they’ve been making the payments to another person and location. You receive payment books or other information from a lender with whom you haven’t done business. Or you find yourself in default on a loan or notified of foreclosure proceedings.
    How to Spot a Scam: Here are 3 I Dodged
    If you experience or find something amiss, notify the register of deeds and local law enforcement. In New York City, for example, homeowners who think they are victims of deed fraud are urged to act quickly to report fraud to the city’s sheriff, get a certified copy of the fraudulent document from the city register’s office, report the crime to the district attorney’s office in the borough where the property is located, and consult an attorney to help confirm ownership of the property. (Legal action known as “quieting the title” may be required to resolve any questions about your ownership of the property.)

    What would fix it is they have to be there in person. No email nothing being lazy. You want to take a loan you want to change owner ship of the house you want to sell it. They owner has to be there to agree to that. If he has no idea this happened then it's a false document it's fake and you ignore the thief unless you can find him and arrest him.

We should getter together and have legislative to hear us and speak to them and help us hard working citizens. We also need looked after. It is to prevent further confusion and very damageing to our future. We must stand for our rights. Scammer,flipping and identify theft. Shouldn't get away with what they doing. Stoling some ones home must be in prison. Some of been living in their houses for 10-30 years. Good god.help us we can not let our justice to turn their back on us. 10-30 years of our life is not a jock. It takes responsibility and willingness. To do so. So we're been doing. Just that. I believe if homeowners dont give up., something good will happen. So lets get together and we fight till we get our justice served.

    The reason they targeted this property is that it looked abandoned. That made it an easy steal. He should have taken care of his grandfathers property then he would not be in this situation. He completely let this property go for years and now he wanted to flip it and make a shit load of money but unfortunately for him, someone illegally beat him to it. He acts all sentimental about this being his grandfather's property when all that mattered to him was that he could not sell this property for 400,000 to an investor who would help in gentrifying the area.
