I received a recorded deed notice and this company is preying on people to steal money on recently closed properties. They make the bill look legit and the amount they charge is $109.00 and tell you to respond quickly. They put the recording date down, the price of your property, and the property information. This is a scam, and they get your credit card number and cash in knowing that people have so many things going on when they are going through the buying process. They claim to send you a packet and it is not something needed by the home buyer. These are professional scam artists preying on people. This needs to stop. I tried calling and they claimed to be closed, I tried again and the employee hung up on me. I want my funds back, and this needs to stop.Business Response

1/16/23 My wife was scammed by this irreputable bunch of predatory thieves you actually give credit to just by seeing all these scams and still allow them to be BBB members?? I mean thanks for perpetuating this thievery. My wife thought the bill looked legitimate and it was worded in a way to scare her into paying it. We recently did some ***** state activity with our property and she thought it was related because the way it is presented and solicited. They absolutely took advantage and stealing my money. This should not be legal as it takes full advantage of scare tactics and uses state property activity information to fashion their scam approach. In case you have not noticed this is the exact same story each time how long will you support them as long as they pay you for membership. ??? .Business Response

We are not predatory, we do
not scam, or take advantage of anyone, and accusing us of “scare tactics” and “theft”
doesn’t even warrant a response. Our solicitation letter states the facts, that
it is solicitation offering a service, for a service fee, it clearly states, this is not a bill, we are
not a government agency , that is optional. If this customer did not read or
understand our notice, then we apologize, our solicitation letter also states
that we will refund the full amount for any reason. This customers refund check
will be mailed to them for the full amount, this week. Our responses to consumer
complaints are not” stories” they are “facts” that are clearly stated on our solicitation
letter regarding the services we provide, the “facts” and our services are consistent
and therefore our responses do not change.
We thank the BBB for their mediation in this matter.Initial Complaint

Unfortunately, I realized this was a scam right after I used my credit card to pay these scammers $109.00. The mail I received appeared to be official government correspondence and I thought I needed to pay $109.00 by 2/17/2023, to have the Deed on my house recorded. Now I find out this company sits around scamming people. It's all over Google and I should have Googled before paying. I Googled after I noticed verbiage at the top of the form states "NOT ASSOCIATED WITH ANY GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY", but it was too late because I had already paid. I filed a complaint with the Texas Attorney General's office and will dispute the charge on my credit card tomorrow. I will also file a predatory practice complaint because this mail was sent "First Class Mail" and appears to be an official document from the government about recording the Deed on my house.Business Response

We are not a scam or predatory. This customer called us
requesting a refund and the refund was issued 2/6/23 and can take up to 72
business hours to process through her bank. We are sorry this customer did not
read our letter before ordering. It is very clear (as she pointed out) that we
are not a government agency, that is not a bill and our service fee is for a
service, our solicitation letter clearly states “this service for a Property
Profile” which is a comprehensive 30-40 page property report we compile and
research for the service fee, as with all services its optional.Initial Complaint

They sent me a letter regarding a payment for a deed and property assessment even though I live on the opposite side of the country. When I saw the address I immediately thought something wasn’t right. They asked for $109 for their report, so I looked them up on the internet and found out it was more or less a scam. Do not pay for their service, this can be provided when you by a property or your local governing office.Business Response

Our service fee is for a service, we compile an
approximately 40-page property report for home owners who choose to use our
services. If a home wants to go through all the different departments in the public
record and research their property and compile their own 40-page report they can,
it a matter of knowing what information is available and where all the information
is located …if not that is what our service is for. We are not a scam… we offer
a service for a service fee and we are nationwide, if a homeowner does not want
or need our services, they should disregard our letter. We thank the BBB for
their mediation in this matter.Initial Complaint

This company is sending me a letter to collect for an "amount due" pretending to be from a government agency.
As soon as I received the letter i thought it came from the county office department in ******* ***
Something did not feel right about this "agency" requesting money for a property assessment profile which I did not request. And even more suspicious that they would be urgent for a payment before 10/14/22.
I searched on the internet and found out that they are a scammer. Many complaints have been filed for the same reason and unfortunately many people have been victimized by these people. I do not understand how they are allowed to continue to be in business, ripping off people like that.
DO NOT PAY AND REPORT THEM INSTEAD.Business Response

We are sorry this consumer was upset by our solicitation
letter. Our solicitation letter is very clear1, The letter doesn’t not have “amount due” we have a “service
fee “for a service, and of course services are optional, and we have a requested
response date not a urgent due date as stated by this consumer.2. It is clearly stated in the top right of the letter in
large font that we are not a government agency.3. We offer a service to compile and research the approximately
40-page property report (Property Profile) it is an offer for a service not a bill,
or a requirement (also clearly stated), consumers can choose to use our services
or not.4.We do not victimize or rip any one off as suggested by
this consumer and we have thousands of satisfied customers who have used our
services. If a consumer doesn’t want or need our services then they should disregard
our letter.

Property Profile sent me a letter regarding records of dead. Fail to respond by 10/28/2022 results in fine and 5 years imprisonment. Unknowingly, there were just soliciting money and in small print it says it is not a bill. They proceeded to be rude to me by phone and refused to cancel my checks two checks in the amount of $200.00. This was fraudulent. I do not grant them to process my check.Business Response
Date: 10/07/2022
This customer called us multiple times and the
calls were recorded; we did review the calls. This customer was asking us to
cancel her check, as we have not yet received the check, we said we would be
happy to shred the check when and if we receive it, or she could follow up with her
bank to stop payment on the check, as we are not able to do that for her. Our service fee is $109 not $200 any check or multiple
checks written in any other amount would not be for us. The representative
tried multiple times to explain the warning on the front of our envelope the $2000
warning 5 years imprisonment is a U.S.P.S Advisory for any person tampering or
obstructing the delivery of any mail, it does not apply to the homeowner or
our services and nowhere does it say it is a penalty for failure to respond. We
are not fraudulent; our service fee is for the compilation and research for a
30-40 Page property report called a “property Profile “not a deed. and of
course, our services are optional. This is very clear on our letter. We are
sorry that this customer is angry and misunderstood our notice, we have noted
to shred the check when and if we receive it, or the other option is that this
customer can contact her bank to place a stop payment. We thank the BBB for their
mediation in this matter.
