The
Visalia Times-Delta reports that an Exeter, California man facing foreclosure was ripped off of over $1,500, which represented one month's mortgage payment, by a company that approached him through a direct mail soilicitation. The company,
First Gov, reportedly is a firm that the local Better Business Bureau believes is fraudulent. An attempt by the
Times-Delta to reach First Gov the three phone numbers listed on its correspondence was made; two lines were disconnected. A message was left on an answering machine of the third line, which went unanswered. For more, see
