Notary Fraud Alert
Notary Fraud Alert
"Notary Fraud Alert" is a free online subscription service offered to all public notaries, enabling them to monitor their notary name and commission number at the Tarrant County Recorder’s Office to detect potentially fraudulent recordings made in their name or under their seal.
With mortgage and document fraud involving forged or stolen notary credentials on the rise, many notaries remain unaware that their information has been compromised until filings occur. While Notary Fraud Alert does not prevent fraud, it provides an early warning system so notaries can take swift and appropriate action if suspicious activity is detected.
It’s simple: just sign up, enter your notary name and identifying number, and you’ll receive a notification whenever a document is recorded using your credentials"
