We have ten acres just east of Lubbock, Texas. Been here for nearly 40 years. When we bought it, it had been about a section of farmland that was divided into five and ten acres parcels. The paperwork has easements on two sides for future roads, etc. So, on the back side we moved our fence line off the property line 20 feet, in anticipation of a road or a turnrow at some time. After about 20 years it was apparent that there would never be a road back there so I moved the fence to the original property line. Well, you can guess what happened. My "good" neighbor accused me of stealing a 20 foot wide piece of land right in front of his eyes. I produced the original paperwork and asked him to do the same, as survey stakes were still buried at the corners. Ended up having the place surveyed again, with the party who was wrong paying for it. He still doesn't speak to me and I suppose that's OK. In parts of Texas one has to be careful about "abandoned" property though. It's tricky, but you can lose land if you aren't on top of things.
As far as someone selling property that isn't theirs, it's a pretty common thing. Just isn't enough law enforcement to pay that much attention to it.
