There are many death and probate related scams. I will focus on four.

  • Inheritance Scams
  • Renting Home of Deceased Scams
  • Stealing from the Estate Prior to the Inventory
  • Undue Influence

Inheritance Scams

The number one way scammers operate is by telephone. Hang up and block numbers – DO NOT ENGAGE.


Renting Home of Deceased Scams

Debt settlement companies do not owe fiduciary duties to you the way lawyers do.


Stealing from the Estate Prior to the Inventory

Putting a freeze on your credit reports is the best way to avoid credit card fraud.


Undue Influence

There are government resources to help you reclaim your identity.
