Prescott AZ News – The Yavapai County Recorder’s Office has recently received calls regarding fraud protection related to property records. We offer a service, free to the public, called Eagle Fraud Guard. An email address is required to enroll as this is the method of contact should a document be recorded, that may affect you. Once enrolled and upon the recording of any document recorded with your name you will be notified by email. You may get notifications that are for a different person by the same or similar name. However, this notice gives you the opportunity to view the document and determine if you are affected by the recording. Your only responsibility once enrolled is to maintain a current email address.
