Ohio Feds Indict Foreclosure Rescue Operator

From the U.S. Attorney's Office in Cleveland, Ohio:
  • Gregory A. White, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Ohio, [on Wednesday] announced that a federal grand jury in Cleveland, Ohio, charged James A. Warsing of Ashtabula, Ohio, with eight counts of Mail Fraud. The indictment charges that between 2001 and 2005, James A. Warsing, using his company, WJW Enterprises, devised a scheme to defraud various homeowners threatened with foreclosures, by falsely promising he could save the homes from foreclosure. It was further alleged that Warsing fraudulently obtained large sums of monies from homeowners promising to use such monies to settle their accounts with lenders but used the money for other personal and business purposes.
