Riley County residents will be able to sign up for a service that aims to detect property and mortgage fraud. The Riley County Commission unanimously approved Monday an agreement with Fidlar Technologies to implement a property fraud alert system. The system will allow residents to sign up to receive alerts when a document has been filed with the Riley County Register of Deeds under their name. Those who opt in to the service can get a notification in the form they select when they register, such as email or text message. The licensing and set-up will cost the county $8,000 with an annual fee of $1,750 for maintenance of the system. The Register of Deeds office will pay the costs out of its technology fund.
