Everyone knows that the role that our federal government is supposed to play is one of the bodyguard or bouncer for the citizens of our fine country. In this respect people expect the government to step up when issues arise that threaten the safety and security of a large number of people. The federal government has done just this in the case of pursuing companies that offer foreclosure rescue and mortgage modification scams.
In April of 2009 the government announced the shutting down of a few prominent businesses that made empty promises to consumers and took their money. In addition, the government sent 71 letters to other businesses to advise them to close their doors as well to prevent further action. Needless to say, this action helped consumers but has not eliminated the threat of scams.
In order for you to fully protect yourself you need to be aware of who you are doing business with when your home is involved. Don’t just pick someone from a simple internet search or breeze through the phonebook, do some research and ask some authorities. Attorneys are good to ask about the validity of different mortgage modification and foreclosure rescue companies as they know the law well.
