"Crooks go where the money is. That's why Willie Sutton robbed banks, and this is the new bank robbery," said Brooklyn Assistant District Attorney Richard Farrell, who is prosecuting several deed fraud cases.

I’ve dealt with NYC bureaucrats. If you required those people to verify the information they’re dealing with, you’d be waiting in line for six months, instead of 2 hours.

Why can’t it take 90 minutes to get Obama’s birth certificate?

The recorders are right to file what is presented . Every document they deal with is sworn to just like an affidavit . This is not a situation to be solved by more government interference . I do not want to have to litigate every notice of interest and mechanic lien I file at the recorders desk . If I slander or wrongly cloud a title there are already plenty of remedies .

Just another example of how Jack killed the Giant.
The bigger Goober Mint gets, the easier he is to take down.
Some smarts, desire, and brass marbles help also.

so i assume they will be prosecuting the Daily News for forgery, fraud, etc...
seems to me that forging a notary public and filing false gov't documents would be no small crime.

A system, based largely on trust, is exploitable? I’m shocked!

Less than 90 minutes after the bogus documents were submitted on Monday, the agency rubber-stamped the transfer from Empire State Land Associates to Nelots Properties LLC. Nelots is "stolen" spelled backward. (The News returned the property Tuesday.)
Uh, I've gotta catch a plane...

This story should remind you of something:
“The massive ripoff illustrates a gaping loophole in the city’s system for recording deeds, mortgages and other transactions.
The loophole: The system - run by the office of the city register - doesn’t require clerks to verify the information.”
