Escrow Service is a way of transferring or exchanging money using a neutral third party. In many jurisdictions, escrow agents constitute a separate profession with their own training and accreditation requirements. In other jurisdictions, these functions may be performed by lawyers. In both cases, the process is covered by significant regulation and protection through the use of licenses and/or bonds.
With the internet age, escrow services have gone digital. Many online deals allow geographically distant buyers and sellers to purchase goods and services from each other. With large purchases, the potential for fraud is significant.
To address this problem, online escrow services have been established to provide a reliable third-party means of completing a sale. In response, fraudulent operators have increased their level of sophistication and established illegitimate services, so it is important that anyone using such a service proceed with caution. An escrow service is an “escrow” (a trust account) used by a third party (not involved in the transaction) to hold and then pay an amount of money between two parties (buyer and seller) involved in a specific transaction. When using this type of service, money transactions will always be secure because payments will be held in an escrow account and will be released only when all terms of the agreement are met. This system, used throughout the world, is very useful when sums of money are used in a transaction, and certain obligations must be met before payment can be released to the seller. In fact, it often happens that before paying, the buyer wants confirmation that he will receive the goods purchased, or wants to verify the quality of the work done. The seller, on the other hand, wants assurance that he will receive payment when the work is done, or when the goods are delivered.
