Most developed contries have digitized their deed system, so I am not sure how you can con someone out of their deed.
Also, back when we did use physical deeds, there generally was owner’s copy and land office’s copy, and on the back of the deed would be the transfer history.
So to con someone out of their deed, you would not only need to get the owner’s deed, but you would also have to get your name added to the land office’s copy.

Not the US*. I mean I guess they are digitized in the sense that records are typically published online electronically, but it is all still based off these bits of paper going back and forth, there is not like a database of ownership.

"Digitizing" something doesn't make it invincible to con artists - there's really no difference between me conning you into signing over a deed if it's paper or digital.
