Mortgage foreclosure rescue scams are everywhere. Above is a video from the FTC about these rescue scams. The video provides real stories like the one where a couple paid a $500 deposit, $3000 soon after and the result? “That took my money and did nothing”. About 2/3rds the way through the video, we learn who the FTC recommends. Go to HopeNow.com or call 888-995-HOPE or 888-995-4673 the Homeowners Hope Hotline.
A couple of interesting tidbits, Look at the Google Results for “Foreclosure Rescue”. The FTC link comes in at #3, while an apparent for profit company comes in at #1. This FTC page doesn’t even rank for the search term “Foreclosure”.
So how about YouTube? The FTC did post this there under FTCVideos, but it only has 2,545 views. A for profit site in this sector has over 13,000 views.
