The Real Estate Hackers

Real Estate on the net is hot. I know this because I do SEO, advertising and marketing for Real Estate web sites among other things. There are a bunch of hackers targeted on Real Estate. One of them from China was generating a bunch of spam on a lead generating site we had set up for a customer. I recently had a customer that I am not convinced was not part of this real estate crime ring. Yes, hacking and spamming is a CRIME in case you real estate people who are doing this like to think otherwise - that maybe it is just tough business. It is not. I hope you like to wear stripes, or orange jumpsuits as it may be these days.
