So, I'm working on a current deal atm with lease to own. I'm not 100% if it is the same person or not. You all know hot the world of wonderful internet is. You type in someone name, and something might pop up. So today I thought I just look up their name to see if something comes up. Guess what? First name is mortgage fraud new from a city near by. I'm not 100% sure if it is same person, but what would you do in this situation? I have asked them to provide owner information so I can do a background check....but if everything is legit, should I proceed?
