About the webinar
The email looked right. The phone number matched. And the voice on the line sounded like the loan officer this homebuyer had been working with for weeks.
But it was all a scam.
In the August edition of To Catch a Fraudster, CertifID Co-founder and Executive Chairman Tom Cronkright sits down with a homebuyer whose family lost tens of thousands of dollars in closing funds to a lender impersonation scam.
This is a firsthand account of how sophisticated impersonation fraud has become, and what it reveals about the role everyone in the closing plays in stopping it, including real estate agents, who are often the first party a buyer or seller trusts.
Join us for a conversation about process, trust, and why fraud prevention belongs to the whole closing team.
Wire fraud, business email compromise, and social engineering are hitting title agencies harder than ever. Not to mention the expectations from home buyers and sellers are skyrocketing. The tools to defend and run your operation have never been more accessible; the challenge is knowing where to start, what to prioritize, and how the pieces fit together.
Join us for a candid conversation on what a modern title agent's tech stack actually looks like in 2026, from access controls and email security to endpoint protection and wire verification.
What you'll take away:
A practical framework for evaluating your current stack against four security layers
Where the highest-ROI investments sit, and the order to make them
How leading operations layer defenses from endpoint to escrow
The capabilities that close the gaps fraudsters are exploiting today
