The Lubbock County Clerk’s Office<\/a> recently made a major announcement regarding property fraud crimes. A new service has been adopted that allows citizens to avoid becoming victims of losing their property, titles, and more to thieves stealing their identities.<\/p>\n

Lubbock Property Fraud: Not a Victimless Crime<\/p>\n

Lubbock County\u00a0is partnering with Tyler Technologies<\/a> to create a service called Fraud Notify<\/a>. What does it do? For those who sign up, Fraud Notify allows citizens to protect their property ownership.<\/p>\n

Here’s how it works. When you sign up for Fraud Notify, you will be sent an automated email alert every time a document registered under your name in the County Clerk’s Office is recorded. Yes, the service is completely free to the public.<\/p>\n

This way, you can confirm if the documents accessed were actually from you or if they were an attempt to access private information from a thief. Then, you will need to visit the County Clerk’s Office (904 Broadway<\/a> Room 207) in person to review the documents and confirm if it was you who accessed them or not.<\/p>\n

The documents protected<\/a> under Fraud Notify include deeds, deeds of trust, liens, and notices. Here’s the kicker: court case filings are not included under this new service.<\/p>\n

Citizens with questions or who wish to learn more about Fraud Notify are invited to email countyclerk@lubbockcounty.gov<\/a> or call (806) 775-1076.<\/p>\n
