The Federal Trade Commission- Warning Video About Foreclosure Rescue Scams
Author: Matthew D. Weidner, Esq.
Not nearly enough is being done to protect consumers from the con artists that are preying upon them. The attached is an excellent video, and I encourage everyone to watch it and share it around. Currently, less than 5,000 people have watched this video, but I know that when you good people get the word out, we can double that in a week.
I don’t have much faith in our elected officials and I’m trying to keep my faith in judges, but the fact of the matter is we all need to do more to get the word out there….this is all of our problem…
BEWARE- REPORT MORTGAGE MODIFICATION OR FORECLOSURE RESCUE SCAMS!
Author: Matthew D. Weidner, Esq.
Consumers all across the State of Florida are being victimized by companies that take their money and promise results, but can do absolutely nothing for them. The agencies that could investigate and shut down these illegal operations could do so, but choose not to. It makes me furious. Just like the epic disaster we have brewing out in the Gulf, the government failed to act and now tragic consequences are the result. It’s time we all step up and demand more accountability from these elected officials. Do Your Part- Report All Examples of Foreclosure Rescue or Mortgage Modification Scams Here:

I have a special place of disdain in my heart for the Florida Bar. The Bar has sat idly by while this foreclosure crisis grips this state and have done very little. Attorneys licensed in this state have set up shady operations and bilked clients out of money—THEY SHOULD BE DISBARRED. Lawyers from out of state have taken millions of dollars from Floridians when they could do little or nothing for them—THEY TOO SHOULD BE DISBARRED. Unfortunately, getting the Bar’s attention often seems hopeless. For what it’s worth, here’s their number, please contact and report improper attorney behavior here:
