So the quick story is, my fiancé and I went to close on our first home, somebody impersonated my escrow agent and sent my realator fruadulant wiring instructions.
Who in turn sent them to me, I verified them with my lender and sent the money for the closing costs in full to where I was told by pretty much everybody.
The money went into a fraudulent account and I got ripped off 15k+
The accounts now been frozen.
Now the impersonator is just using gmail, and has still messaged me once yesterday to see if the funds went threw.
I haven't replied. I was thinking of sending him/her a link to track his IP.
How possible is this and how accurate would it be? I sent one to myself once and I think it just said the city and state, not the exact location.
But if I take his IP and give it to someone that is more compitant, would they be able to pin point it?
HELP, I'm basically losing my house over this.
