Nine defendants allegedly were involved in an advance fee mortgage relief scam in Southern California. According to CA-AG, the scheme impacted multiple victims, resulted in a loss of approximately $6 million, and affected over 200 properties. The group allegedly conspired to defraud lenders and homeowners of possession of residential properties by targeting distressed homeowners claiming they could stop the foreclosure of their home if the home owners made monthly payments to the group. They allegedly delayed foreclosures and eviction actions by filing fraudulent bankruptcy documents, false court documents, and false fractional interest grant deeds.
