Worried about Foreclosure?
As foreclosure has increased, so has a new type of crime: Foreclosure rescue or relief assistance scams. These con artists make empty promises and prey on people who are desperate to keep their homes. If you take the bait, what can happen?
- You may end up in even worse financial shape than before.
- You may be able to save your home or sell it to someone else for a profit.
- You may be able to avoid foreclosure through loan modification.
