📞 Friday Tip: Verify Probate Contacts, Especially During Black Friday Shopping Season

Scammers ramp up their activity around Black Friday and the holidays and probate-related scams are no exception.
If someone contacts you claiming to be “from the court,” “probate services,” or demanding payment, take a pause.

Before you respond:
✅ Verify the caller or sender by contacting your county probate clerk directly
✅ Be suspicious of urgent payment requests — real probate notices don’t pressure you
✅ Avoid links or attachments — holiday scams often mimic official messages
✅ Slow down — the same mindset that protects you during Black Friday shopping also protects you in probate

Staying cautious this time of year can prevent costly mistakes. ➡️ Follow our page, Probate Help Wisconsin, to learn more about how PHW can guide you through the probate process with clarity, compassion, and trusted local resources.

🛡️ Introducing Our Probate Scam Awareness Mini-Series

Unfortunately, probate can attract the wrong kind of attention, scammers. When an estate becomes public record, it can open the door for people looking to take advantage of grieving families.

Over the next few Fridays, we’ll share quick, practical tips to help you recognize and avoid common probate scams happening right here in Wisconsin.

Let’s start with one of the most common risks ⬇️

Did you know scammers can use public probate filings to collect names, addresses, and even partial Social Security numbers?

Executors and heirs can unknowingly become targets for identity theft. A few ways to protect yourself:
✅ Limit what you share publicly about the estate.
✅ Shred old mail and documents before discarding.
✅ Keep Social Security numbers, account info, and passwords secure.
✅ Notify credit bureaus if a loved one has passed to help prevent fraud.

A few simple precautions can save you a lot of stress later.
