CertifID’s 2026 State of Wire Fraud report delivers the most comprehensive analysis of real estate wire fraud, drawing on 1.4 million transactions, recovery data from hundreds of cases, and national surveys of consumers and title professionals. Join CertifID’s Tom Cronkright and Tyler Adams as they break down the data, share frontline insights, and outline practical steps to protect your clients and your business in 2026.
Every year, CertifID publishes the most comprehensive analysis of wire fraud in real estate. The 2026 report draws on four sources: CertifID's proprietary platform data from over 1.4 million transactions, recovery data from hundreds of fraud cases, and two national surveys covering both consumers and title professionals.

Today’s title and escrow professionals aren’t just deal facilitators. They’re often the first line of defense for their clients.
In this special episode of To Catch a Fraudster, we’re taking you behind the scenes with industry insiders who’ve gone beyond damage control and started fighting back.
You’ll hear the real, raw story of our Executive Chairman Tom’s take down of Black Axe, a global cybercriminal syndicate that targeted his title firm (and led to CertifiD). He’ll be joined by Chris Luttrell, a practicing real estate attorney and active fraud fighter, to discuss his efforts, tactics, and stories around thwarting the fraudsters who target his firm today.
They’ll also be joined by former Managing Director of U.S. Secret Service’s Global Investigative Operations Center, Matt O’Neill, who will unpack the mindset of criminal networks and show how real estate professionals can build stronger defenses and smarter responses.
Join us to learn how others in your space are fighting back and how you can best prepare for the threats to come.
How check fraud and digital payment threats are evolving in real estate
Common transaction weak points exploited by fraudsters
How real estate agents and title teams can close the security gap together
