A member recently contacted WVMLS to notify us of a scam.
How The Scam Is Initiated
An out of state lead will contact saying they found your information on the web and are looking to purchase real estate in Oregon. They will then ask to meet via Zoom. The link they send is actually Malware.
Other Versions of This Scam
You may receive an email warning that your Zoom account will be deactivated and it will contain a malicious Zoom link.
You may receive "Missed a meeting" or "Rejoin" emails which contain the malicious Zoom link.
Although Zoom is the most commonly utilized for this scam be aware that there have been reports of this scam also ran on platforms such as: SnapChat, WhatsApp, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meetings.
Always be vigilant when a lead initiates communication, verify first, and best practice is to host any remote meetups yourself instead of relying on potentially dangerous links from untrusted sources.
