Report: Identity Fraud Rises 9 Percent
October 7, 2014
While Interthinx reported that mortgage fraud remained unchanged from the previous quarter, instances of identity fraud increased 9 percent during the second quarter of 2014. The increase in this type of activity is important to title and settlement agents as lenders will often try to hold them liable for not detecting the fraud at the closing table.
