What is home title theft? Am I protected? Q: I heard you talking about home title theft. We're close to paying off our home, and the idea of losing our equity is frightening. I have homeowners insurance. Is that enough to protect me? A: Your bank, your insurance company or identity theft protection service simply can’t protect you from this type of theft. My sponsor Home Title Lock is the only company that provides nationwide monitoring and alerts. Here's how the scam works: Using information found online, criminals take you off the title to your own home. You’re left with the legal bills and your hard-earned equity is gone. You could even be evicted. Home Title Lock puts a virtual barrier around your home’s title. The instant they detect anyone tampering with it, they mobilize to shut it down. You can get a free comprehensive title scan right now when you sign up. Visit HomeTitleLock.com to get started, and use the promo code “KIM” for 30 FREE days of protection. |
