House Stealing

The FBI has released information regarding this rather uncommon crime wherein you, the homeowner can get your home (not the contents) stolen right under your nose without you even knowing about it. Called House Stealing, it has a crook assuming your identity through theft and transfers/sells your property legally.

As the FBI says, it is not easy to stop such a crime so vigilance is the key. How would you feel if you suddenly get an eviction notice saying that the new owner of your house needs you out of there, without even considering selling your home? This is a serious crime and should be treated with utter vigilance for cases are increasing and you are the best defense. Victims are cautioned to contact the FBI or other concerned law enforcement agencies for more information and help.
