And this person said also, "How do I spot crazy people coming before I get in contract with them?" Well, it's one of the benefits of running a business that your buyers and sellers come to you or your clients come to you by referral. So if somebody comes to you and you've never met them, make sure you're using your tools like Forewarn, which is a wonderful tool provided by our real estate association so you can check somebody's phone number and see what it is that is in their background and keep yourself safe. That's a safety measure. And often if you see a number in forewarn with no history, that's often a scammer.
