NY AG Letitia James Gives Updates On Queens Deed Theft Investigation

Published | Video Starts at 03:52

The deed was notarized with a forged signature from a Nassau county notary, and they later forged additional documents transferring ownership of the home to an LLC, allowing Victor Quimmes to take out a 552,000 mortgage on the property. After paying off the mortgage, Mr. Quimmet stole over $300,000 that was remaining. And this is a prime example of deed theft. Earlier this week, my office arrested Victor Quimmes and charged him with multiple felonies for his role in the scheme. (03:52–04:00)
