CFPB Slams the Door On Foreclosure Relief Scammers
The CFPB and the State of Florida have obtained a sizable judgment against the Hoffman Law Group, affiliated companies, and individuals for a scam that tricked consumers into paying illegal advance fees and joining frivolous lawsuits in order to gain relief from foreclosures. The companies used false advertising and even duped consumers into thinking the law firm was providing legal representation. [6/1/15]
