WARNING:

There has been an increase in the number of attempts by some individuals to defraud the public by claiming to be OFID or to have its authority for soliciting advance payments or upfront fees to secure OFID financing for transactions. Categorically, OFID does not seek advance or upfront fees for financing its operations. Therefore, such solicitation of fees by any one or entity posing to be OFID is necessarily fraudulent. Users are hereby warned to use extreme caution with regard to any request for fees, allegedly sought by or on behalf of OFID.
