ALWAYS VERIFY WIRE INSTRUCTIONS, specifically the ABA routing number and account number, by calling the party who is receiving the funds.  DO NOT RELY on other parties calling you.

Obtain the number of your Realtor®, Real Estate Broker and your escrow officer as soon as an escrow account is opened.

DO NOT use the phone number provided in the email containing the instructions, use phone numbers you have called before or can otherwise verify.  DO NOT send an email to verify as the email address may be incorrect or the email may be intercepted by the fraudster.
