Protected by Closinglock

Secure Closings with Closinglock

Locust Grove Title and Settlements, LLC has partnered with Closinglock to protect buyers, sellers, agents, and lenders from wire fraud and identity theft at every step of the closing.

Important Wire Fraud Notice

Locust Grove Title and Settlements, LLC uses Closinglock to securely provide wire instructions. Do not rely on wire instructions received by regular email, text message, or from an unverified source. If you receive suspicious instructions, call our office directly at 540-972-2009 before sending any funds.

Why It Matters

Real estate wire fraud is the #1 cybercrime targeting closings

Criminals impersonate title companies, lenders, and agents over email to redirect six-figure wire transfers. Once funds are sent to a fraudulent account, they are rarely recovered. We refuse to let that happen on our files — which is why we route wire instructions, identity verification, and sensitive documents through Closinglock instead of regular email.

A secure portal built for real estate closings

Closinglock is an industry-leading secure platform used by title companies across the country to fight wire fraud. It replaces unencrypted email with verified, encrypted document and payment delivery — accessible from any phone or computer, with no software to install.
