    Partial Extract From Article:
    Title fraud is identity theft: someone pretends to be you and transfers
    your deed to someone else. Title lock insurance (again: not a lock, not insurance) wouldn’t stop that. And you can check your title for free
    with your state’s land records office, and some areas even have a free notification program that allows you to sign up for alerts about any
    legal changes, like ownership of a property.
