ACUMA Inside Track webinar, sponsored by FundingShield. Wire & Title Fraud in 2025: Fraudsters & Cyber threats, Proven Defenses, and Why Risk Leaders Must Act Now

Wire & Title Fraud in 2025: Fraudsters & Cyber threats, Proven Defenses, and Why Risk Leaders Must Act Now: Wire & Title fraud is no longer a fringe concern — it’s a growing operational and reputational risk for credit unions and lenders nationwide. In Q1 2025 alone, nearly 47% of real estate transactions showed indicators of wire or title fraud, marking the highest level ever recorded. Fraudsters are leveraging AI-generated documents, deepfake identities, and forged deeds to exploit gaps in verification processes — often without the homeowner or lender realizing until it’s too late. This session will unpack the current landscape of wire & title fraud, drawing from the latest data and real-world case studies. Attendees will see a live demo of FundingShield’s fraud prevention solutions, showcasing how real-time source data verification, CPL validation, and remediation can be embedded into workflows to stop fraud before it reaches closing.
