Indiana AG Targets Foreclosure Rescue Operator For Allegedly Taking Upfront Fee, Not Solving Mortgage Problem

In Indianapolis, Indiana, WIBC-FM Radio 93.1 reports:

• The state says an Indianapolis company which offers to help you stave off foreclosure should be put out of business. Attorney General Steve Carter has asked for a court order barring Nationwide Foreclosure Consultants from contacting customers until it posts a required [$10,000] bond with the state. He's also suing the company for taking a [$495] payment from a Charlestown woman and allegedly doing nothing on her behalf. The suit accuses NFC of promising a money-back guarantee if the company failed to "solve (a client's) mortgage problems."

• Carter wants a court to fine the company [$5,500] for what he contends are violations of three Indiana consumer-protection laws.
