Mortgage

A mortgage scam is a fraudulent attempt to obtain money or personal information from people who are looking to buy or refinance a home. Scammers may pose as legitimate mortgage lenders or they may create fake loan offers. They often use high-pressure tactics to convince victims to send money or provide sensitive information.

Mortgage fraud is a serious problem that can have a devastating impact on victims. In 2023, there are a number of new and emerging mortgage fraud schemes that borrowers should be aware of.
