Like many companies, OmniReferral and its employees and agents may be targeted by bad actors using fraudulent schemes that impersonate our brand in an attempt to collect personal or financial information from consumers.
Before engaging with anyone claiming to represent OmniReferral, verify the source carefully. Fraudsters may imitate our branding, our agents, or our websites to create urgency and pressure you into sharing sensitive information.
Please exercise caution when communicating or working with anyone claiming to represent OmniReferral. Always review the source of an email, website, or text message carefully before sharing personal information, financial information, account credentials, or verification codes.
Below are some of the most common scam patterns identified in the real estate and referral space. Awareness of these practices can help reduce the risk of fraud.
OmniReferral.us is our only official consumer-facing website. Scammers may operate fake or copycat websites, including domains ending in .com or other variations, that falsely claim to represent OmniReferral.
If you encounter a suspicious or copycat website, notify us immediately at hello@omnireferral.us.
Scammers posing as OmniReferral agents may contact prospective buyers, sellers, or renters and request payment through Zelle, Venmo, wire transfer, or other peer-to-peer methods using unfamiliar phone numbers or email addresses.
Instead, verify the request using the official contact information published on omnireferral.us. Clicking suspicious links or replying to a scammer may expose you to phishing, malware, or additional fraud attempts.
OmniReferral does not request upfront payments through unofficial channels or from unverified contact details.
Some OmniReferral agents may maintain their own independent websites, while others direct clients to their official presence on OmniReferral. Scammers may create fake agent websites using stolen photos, logos, or branding copied from legitimate agents or social media profiles.
If you believe you shared personal or financial information with a scammer, contact your financial institution immediately. This may include your bank, credit card issuer, or payment service provider such as PayPal or Venmo. Ask about canceling fraudulent transactions and blocking future unauthorized charges.
You may also consider filing a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) or the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3), especially if money was sent or sensitive information was exposed.
The sooner you report suspicious activity, freeze exposed accounts, and change passwords, the better your chance of limiting additional fraud.
Freezing your credit reports can help prevent unauthorized accounts from being opened in your name. Visit each credit bureau's official website for the latest instructions on placing a security freeze.
If you find a suspicious website, receive a questionable payment request, or want to verify whether a contact is legitimate, reach out through OmniReferral's official channels before proceeding.
