<br /></div>
If you’re like many homeowners facing foreclosure, you haven’t a
clue as to what to do to stop the foreclosure process. And, when you
turn to the internet to find help, you’re immediately flooded with a host of
companies — all promising that they can help you stop foreclosure. And you also may see many seemingly innocent websites that claim to give advice on how to <i>avoid </i>scams.<br />
<br />
<b>Easy does it</b> . . . there are a lot of foreclosure scams out there.
AND, there are also a lot of legitimate companies as well who can help
you stop foreclosure. Following are six things that can help you tell the honest companies from the con-artists, and avoid
foreclosure scams. The information you are about to read runs COMPLETELY counter to everything the banks and their government cronies are telling you about how to save your home - <b>but it's VITAL to saving your home.</b> If you simply follow the conventional "how to avoid scams" advice from the corporate media, your lender/servicer, and the thousands of bank-funded "nonprofits" and "loan modification shops" with ulterior motives, then you're making a FATAL mistake and you could quickly find yourself in a world of hurt.<br />

<div style="color: #6fa8dc;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Anti-Scam Tip #1: DON'T Work with Nonprofits</b></span></div>
<br />
Ask anyone these days how you can avoid getting scammed by phony "foreclosure relief" companies, and you'll probably hear them say "work with non-profits, HUD counselors, and so on". This is actually some of the WORST advice you could ever get. Now that doesn't mean that every company that charges a fee is good - many of those can be scams as well. But if you work with a non-profit group, you will quickly discover that they have NO INTEREST in doing anything that gets results for you. And this is for three reasons:<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #e06666;">1. Non-profit agencies are staffed by volunteers and minimum wage workers - NOT foreclosure prevention professionals.</b> They don't know any more than you do about fighting foreclosure and saving your home, and most barely have a high school education. All <i>they </i>are trained to do is fax in paperwork that the bank will throw away anyway. Do you really want to literally bet the house on <i>them</i>?<br />
<div style="color: red;">
<br /></div>
<b style="color: #e06666;">2. HUD and FHA-approved housing counselors are only allowed to pitch you "options" that benefit the banks</b> (for example, loan modifications, short sales, deed-in-lieu, cash for keys). These programs have no requirements for the bank to do ANYTHING to help you - and in order to "qualify" they force you to fall behind several months, waste precious time resubmitting paperwork, only for them to sell your house at auction behind your back! HUD-approved nonprofits have the worst failure rate of any foreclosure prevention companies - <b>so far they have not prevented a single foreclosure!</b> No wonder, since HUD and FHA are run by bank lobbyists, for the benefit of the banks. They were the ones that pumped trillions in cheap credit into mortgage banks and created the housing bubble in the first place. And even the nonprofits they approve are not clean - they are only kept afloat by massive donations from the banks themselves - talk about a conflict of interest!<br />
<div style="color: red;">
<br /></div>
<b style="color: #e06666;">3. Nonprofit mortgage counselors have NO ATTORNEYS and offer you NO LEGAL REPRESENTATION.</b> In other words, they can't stop the bank from doing anything, and they never investigate the mortgage's chain of title to see if your bank even owns your loan! So you could be wasting time on loan modifications that <b>never </b>go through, <b>with a bank that has no intention of helping you</b> (and every intention of stealing your house to collect on mortgage insurance) because they have sold the note to investors and therefore <b>won't modify it</b>. Nonprofits are <b>IGNORANT </b>of most of the federal laws that banks have been violating with their shady mortgage practices, and they have <b>no</b> legal power to protect your home from fraud and wrongful foreclosure! (How many of them know that Bank of America practically bankrupted the insurance giant AIG by fraudulently milking them for billions worth of insurance payouts for properties that they ILLEGALLY foreclosed on and gave the borrower no chance whatsoever to repay!)<br />
<br />
<br />
You need seasoned professional lawyers to negotiate with the bank, NOT minimum-wage pencil-pushers. Otherwise you have no investigations and no EVIDENCE against the bank to negotiate with. How do nonprofit employees expect to get anything done for you when they have no evidence of fraud and no legal standing to make the banks do anything? The government programs they pitch are BROKEN and don't require the banks to do anything, they can deny you on a whim without even giving a reason why. HUD is not some kind of magic bullet, and being HUD-approved doesn't mean a company is trustworthy. Quite the opposite- remember, <b>HUD and FHA are huge bureaucracies run by bank lobbyists, for the benefit of the banks.
They, along with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, were the ones that pumped trillions in cheap sub-prime credit into mortgage
banks and <i>created </i>the mortgage bubble that wrecked the housing market in the first place. HUD is <i><u>not</u> </i>on your side!</b><br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="color: #6fa8dc;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #6fa8dc;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Anti-Scam Tip #2: Avoid Loan Modification Services like the plague - EVEN if they are free</b></span></div>
<br />
<b><span style="font-weight: normal;">There is a huge amount of ignorance and bad advice being spread on the internet about loan modifications. The banks and their HUD-approved counseling partners are basically claiming that the only option (short of bankruptcy or selling your house) is applying for a loan modification through either a government program like HAMP or an in-house bank loan mod program - both of which are equally ineffective and toothless. Essentially, they want you to beg for your home rather than know your rights to DEMAND it. </span></b><br />
<div style="color: red;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><b style="color: red;">In reality, a loan modification is one of the WORST options you could choose</b>.</span><b><span style="font-weight: normal;"> It damages your credit often beyond repair, since arrears are not wiped out but simply stuck on the back of the loan, and what's more, you are forced to fall behind 60 days on your mortgage to even qualify, and then for the next 30 days the bank hems and haws, making no decision on your case, and then suddenly you find yourself 90 days behind on your payments - which officially puts you in DEFAULT and then the bank starts foreclosing on you. Loan mods </span></b><i><span style="font-weight: normal;">force </span></i><b><span style="font-weight: normal;">you to fall behind and default on your loan, and therefore make you into the "delinquent borrower" that the banks love to demonize. Once you are in default, the bank has you by the throat. They can simply claim that you "missed your chance" and failed to submit the loan mod paperwork (often they simply shred it and pretend they never got it), and then foreclose and sell the house within weeks, often without warning. Even if you did everything right, it's your word against theirs once you are in default, if all you were relying on was a loan modification. <span style="color: #f1c232;">And without any evidence backing you up, who is the judge going to believe? The little guy who's 90 days behind, or the big powerful bank with billions of dollars and top-tier attorneys at its disposal, which claims it gave the little guy </span><i style="color: #f1c232;">so many chances</i><span style="color: #f1c232;"> to turn things around with their pie-in-the-sky offers of loan modifications?</span> As far as the judge is concerned, you're probably just another lazy sub-prime bum who wants to live in a house for free - because when you have no actual evidence proving wrongdoing by the bank, the judge will believe the bank.</span></b><br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-weight: normal;">In the end loan mods not only fail to provide any legal defense for your rights as a homeowner - they ACTUALLY strip you of <b>any rights</b> to your home and turn you into a renter, after which point the bank usually uses renter's laws to evict you from the property - and then you are an open target for them to seize your assets to cover the unpaid deficiency on the loan once they sell the house at rock-bottom prices. You may be wondering, how can this happen? It is theft, pure and simple. And loan modifications, far from being a remedy to foreclosure, actually exacerbate the process and make it far more devastating to the homeowner. Meanwhile those apathetic minimum-wage workers at the HUD-approved nonprofit are being subsidized by the banks, and don't make enough to care where their next paycheck is coming from, let alone care what happens to your property after they submit your loan mod application. <b style="color: #ffd966;">So as you can see, loan modification services are a TRAP and a SCAM, even when you don't have to pay for them out of pocket. You WILL ultimately end up paying dearly for such incompetent "free" services - with your home, your credit, and possibly your entire life savings.</b></span></b><br />
<b><br /></b><br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="color: #6fa8dc;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Anti-Scam Tip #3: Expect to pay SOME upfront cost if you expect ANYTHING to be done</b></span></div>
<b><br /></b><br />
Many bank and government-funded "scam alert" sites out there will tell you to beware of any company that asks for an up-front fee to do loan modifications. By now it's a well-known fact that this is a HUGE red flag. But that doesn't mean that you should expect <b>real </b>help for free. Nonprofit counselors and other free services have no legal representation and therefore no power to make the banks do anything to help you. Paying for legal muscle to stop your foreclosure <u>is</u> going to be necessary in most cases. <b>The thing you have to pay attention to is WHAT you are paying for.</b><br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">Yes, it IS illegal to charge upfront for one type of service - that's loan modifications.</span><span style="color: #ffd966;"> </span>But what the banks and even most government sites will NEVER tell you is that loan modifications are non-binding and <b>useless </b>even if you get them done for free - the bank can always choose to reject your application at will even if you qualify. They <b>never </b>tell you that there are PLENTY of <span style="color: lime;">other avenues</span> for stopping foreclosure that work far better than a loan modification - <b>these alternatives to a loan modification are far more effective and <span style="color: red;">perfectly legal</span>, but unlike loan mods, they can only be performed by experienced professionals, and therefore are NOT free.</b> For example, a tier-III securitization audit of your loan can mean the difference between keeping and losing your home, but it HAS to be done by experienced Bloomberg-certified securities auditors and handled by an actual LAW FIRM with attorneys specializing in not just real estate law, but also banking law and securities law, and up to date with the latest regulations in all three areas. As you might guess, such firms are not very common (your local property or bankruptcy attorney literally has NO CLUE how to handle today's post-housing bubble foreclosure cases). Ever since 2001, the vast majority of mortgages have NOT been traditional hard-money loans. They have been securitized, converted into bonds and sold on wall street to private investors - in the process a huge amount of fraud was committed - destroyed notes, broken chain of assignments, sales of the mortgage debt instrument between investors not documented at all, forged documents, robo-signers, negligent misrepresentation, multiple MERS violations, the list goes on and on....<br />
<br />
Any of these problems could be affecting your loan, and in most cases they render any foreclosure ILLEGAL because the paperwork is so predatory and flawed that the bank literally can not even prove that they own your loan. They have already sold it to private investors and gotten their money back - so it is likely they have no claim on you home. However the only way to save your home is to prove any of this. And to prove it you NEED a top-tier law firm handling your case. Attorneys do charge fees, as do auditors. It's not a scam, it's a fact of life. Nobody will work on your case for free, unless they are already being funded by the banks. And you don't want those kinds of two-faced turncoats "helping" you out.<br />
<br />
That said, there ARE plenty of scammers out there who also charge upfront fees. When you do pay someone, <b style="color: #e06666;">know exactly what you’re getting for your money.</b><span style="color: #e06666;"> </span>Don't pay attorneys to file a lawsuit unless you have already paid for a securitization audit and it returned <b>conclusive </b>proof of fraud. Without a successful audit, the evidence is unknown and you don't have a case, and filing a lawsuit without evidence is a total waste of time and money regardless of how skilled your attorney is.<br />
<div style="color: cyan;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: cyan;">Also, make sure that it's a tier-III Securitization Audit and </span><b style="color: #e06666;">not</b><span style="color: cyan;"> a forensic audit. </span><b style="color: #e06666;">Forensic audits have not been proven to get any results in stopping foreclosure.</b> They have been extremely over-hyped in the press, but they rarely find proof of fraud because they only go as far as the original closing documents - they never look into the loan's ownership history during the time AFTER it was bundled up and securitized on Wall Street, and that is the period during which the vast majority of mortgage lending and servicing fraud actually took place.<br />
<div style="color: cyan;">
<br /></div>
<b style="color: #e06666;">Finally, never pay to join a class-action or a mass-joiner suit.</b> There is nothing worse than PAYING to line up behind thousands of other foreclosure victims waiting years for a pathetic $20 check in the mail while your house is lost and your credit is destroyed, only to have some flashy class action attorney pocket millions that should have gone to you and the other victims. To prevent foreclosure without bankrupting you, you need an individual audit and litigation process tailored to YOUR specific case and circumstances, with attorneys focusing specifically on your case to force a quick settlement outside of court. And as <a href="http://www.courthousenews.com/2011/08/19/39125.htm">Kramer & Kaslow</a> showed us, many <a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/directory/Kramer-Kaslow.aspx">class-action lawsuits</a> that require an upfront fee to join are <a href="http://oag.ca.gov/news/press_release?id=2552">scams</a>.<br />
<br />
And in case you're still wondering.... NO, attorneys <b>do not</b> take on individual foreclosure cases for free. At least not if they're <i>real </i>attorneys with a bar certification and an actual law degree.<br />

<div style="color: #6fa8dc;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Anti-Scam Tip #4: Know What You’re Signing!</b></span></div>
<br />
Many foreclosure scam artists get unwitting homeowners to sign over
the deed to their properties. They also get them to sign powers of
attorney unknowingly. This powerful document allows them to conduct
financial business in your name. Of course, the banks have already been gambling with your home and your credit in a very similar way. It’s incredibly easy to get scammed into sign over the deed to your house or sign a power
of attorney. Why/how? As every homeowner knows, you sign a lot of papers
when you decide to buy, sell, refinance or "modify" a mortgage. Hence, one of these
documents could easily “slip by you.”<br />
<br />
So, pay attention to every document you sign. DO NOT sign over the deed to your house if you intend on keeping it. <b>And if you do want to walk away from your home</b>, don't sign any grant deed contract unless it explicitly states in writing that the company offering the contract is BOUND to litigate on your behalf to stop all deficiency judgments against you on the mortgage. Make sure the people you are working with are exactly what they say they are. For example, don't assume that you are working with an attorney unless he shows you proof that he is indeed an attorney. NEVER hire anyone who claims to be an attorney until you have ordered a professional audit on your loan. And, if you don’t understand something, don’t sign it. Period.<br />
<br />
<div style="color: cyan;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #6fa8dc;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Anti-Scam Tip #5: A specific outcome is NEVER guaranteed</b></span></div>
<b><br /></b><br />
If a company unconditionally guarantees that they can get you a certain result (e.g.,
lower your payment by 50%, get your loan modified, etc.), then run for the hills! When it comes to fixing a broken mortgage, you can NEVER guarantee anything without qualification or conditions - it's ILLEGAL.<br />
<br />
<b>Nobody </b>can guarantee a principal reduction, a lower interest rate, or reduction of late fees and arrears in every case. Foreclosures can only be handled on a case-by-case basis. Ultimately whether your foreclosure can be stopped let alone reversed depends on the strength of the evidence found in a comprehensive tier-III audit on your mortgage, as well as the laws of your state. While working with a foreclosure prevention law firm can increase
your chances of obtaining a desired result, every reputable attorney
and legal counselor will tell you that they can’t guarantee a certain outcome. The ONLY guarantee they can legally make is a refund on the audit <b>on the condition</b> that it comes back clean and you don't have a case against your lender. However even that is strictly <b><i>conditional</i></b>. Finding fraud on the audit <i>per se</i> can never be unconditionally guaranteed, since it's an investigation with many possible outcomes.<br />
<br />
<div style="color: cyan;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #6fa8dc;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Anti-Scam Tip #6: Use Common Sense & Trust Your Gut</b></span></div>
<br />
If something just doesn’t “feel right in the pit of your stomach,”
trust that. If it sounds too good to be true, it most likely is (even if it's free). And, no
matter how desperate you may be to stop foreclosure, by going against
your instincts, you could be getting yourself into even more financial
hot water.<br />
<br />
<h3>
<span style="color: red;">Warning Signs</span></h3>
If you're looking for help to save your home, avoid any business that: <br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>guarantees to stop the foreclosure process <i>no matter who your lender is or what your circumstances</i> <i>are</i>;</li>
<li>only sells you loan modifications or other unproven products like REST reports or Forensic audits;<br />
</li>
<li>tells you not to contact your lender, lawyer, or financial legal counselor;<br />
</li>
<li>claims that most or all of its customers get their loans written off or their homes free and clear</li>
<li>charges upfront for foreclosure prevention seminars "guaranteeing" that you will be able to stop your foreclosure yourself with what you learn in their seminar<br />
</li>
<li>asks for an upfront fee before even asking about your hardship or giving you a consultation (unless it's a lawyer you've checked out thoroughly);<br />
</li>
<li>accepts payment only by credit card or moneygram/wire transfer;<br />
</li>
<li>offers no option other than to lease your home so you can buy it back over time;<br />
</li>
<li>tells you to make your mortgage payments directly to it, rather than your lender;<br />
</li>
<li>tells you to transfer your property deed or title to it in order to keep your home;<br />
</li>
<li>offers to buy your house for cash for much lower than the selling price of similar houses in your neighborhood (i.e. "cash for keys"); or<br />
</li>
<li>pressures you to sign papers you haven't had a chance to read thoroughly or that you don't understand. </li>

MORTGAGE FRAUD and ILLEGAL FORECLOSURE is not just a news story - <b>IT IS REALITY.</b><br />
<br />
If you are facing foreclosure and your bank is refusing to work with you, railroading you into endless loan modification processes, losing your paperwork, giving you the runaround, etc. YOU ARE PROBABLY A VICTIM OF MORTGAGE FRAUD and the bank is HIDING the truth about your loan. <b><a href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/danielfisher/2012/02/16/mortgage-audit-firm-surprise-finds-lots-of-errors-in-foreclosures/">According to a groundbreaking new independent audit of the mortgage market, 99% of mortgages in foreclosure have ERRORS in the chain of assignments that make the note invalid and the foreclosure ILLEGAL.

Marie McDonald <a href="http://mcdonnellanalytics.com/">(McDonnell Property Analytics)</a> through
a legal affidavit, explained the results of her independent audit
of Register John O’Brien's registry. It reads in part: <b><u>...."the
banks set up in-house document execution teams, or outsourced the
preparation of their assignments to third parties who manufactured them
out of thin air without researching who really owns the mortgage.</u>…
"What this means is that the degradation in standards .....so fatally
flawed that the institutions, including many pension funds, that
purchased these mortgages don’t actually own them <u>because the assignments of mortgage were never prepared, executed and delivered</u> ....in the normal course of business at the time of the transaction.</b><br />

None of these complaints are from actual clients of ours, and not a single one has any shred of credibility - however his slander page is ranking so high on google that it's caused a lot of people to bombard us with questions. Frankly, we are tired of answering these ridiculous allegations. Most of the answers boil down to two points:<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #ffd966;">1.</span> <span style="color: #ffd966;">National Legal Help Center is NOT, and has NEVER been, a loan modification company.</span> We do not pitch HAMP, HARP, HAFA or any other loan modification program to our clients. While we are easily more than capable of doing loan mods (it doesn't even take a law degree, let alone a law firm to do one), we do not push them as a "solution" to foreclosure because they are usually NOT a solution! We are primarily a litigation firm, that is, we actually do LITIGATE and SUE the banks for fraud and predatory lending, a method that has far higher chances of success than a spineless loan-mod application that the bank can reject at will. A loan mod is a huge waste of time, and it's also ILLEGAL if a company charges money upfront for the mod. Lawyers frankly have no business peddling loan mod services (it's certainly not what they went to law school to learn), and any who do are likely quick-buck scammers or just plain incompetent and lazy, unwilling to actually use their law degree to do a REAL lawyer's job. <b>Our </b>attorneys by contrast focus strictly on <b>litigation.</b><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #ffd966;">2. We do individual personal lawsuits, NOT class-actions or mass-joiners.</span> The reason for this is that class-actions and mass-joiners do not provide reasonable restitution for clients, do not adequately represent the unique grievances and hardships of individual clients, take far too long to file, and are totally ineffective at stopping foreclosure or wiping out deficiency judgments on foreclosed loans. By the time a class action settles, the victim's house is already sold and they are out on the street, still owing money to the bank! Moe has in the past accused us of being a class-action firm like the now disbarred Kramer & Kaslow. WE ARE MOST CERTAINLY NOT.<br />

<br />
Most recently he's falsely accusing our company of being a scam and fraud, without a single shred of proof. His excuse is that his site loansafe.org closely resembles one of our affiliates, loan-safe.org, however having a similar domain name is very common in this day and age when domain names that may sound similar end up being bought, sold, and registered by totally unrelated businesses - it's perfectly legal. Our business (mortgage fraud investigations and lawsuits) is completely different from his (non-litigation loan modifications). Furthermore, our company policies are rock-solid and we have always stuck by them from the beginning - either we find fraud on your loan, or your money back. And loan-safe.org isn't part of our company - it's a third-party referral service.<br />
<br />
Moe Bedard doesn't have a SINGLE proof of illegal activity on our part. Here is this liar's email to our company: <br />

Actually, all of Moe's claims are LIES. First, we are <b>not </b>using his website's name in bad faith. His website is essentially a lead-generation service for banks and lenders. Ours is a Legal Services site (i.e. we are a LAW FIRM, not a mortgage middleman or lead generator). Second, our company website is actually NOT loan-safe.org, which is the one Moe's all hot and bothered about - our company website is Nationallegalhelp.com. We do business as National Legal Help Center, not as loan-safe, loansafe, or any derivative thereof. In fact loan-safe.org is nothing more than a third-party referral service which offers legal information, NOT legal advice, for educational purposes only. Here is the disclaimer from the bottom of Loan-safe.org's front page: </div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="color: #6fa8dc;">
<i>This company and site informs its users about foreclosure law designed
to help them safely cope with their own legal needs. However, legal
information is not the same as legal advice. The law as it applies to
each individual varies with specific circumstances. Privacy Policy *
LOANFAX & NATIONAL LEGAL HELP CENTER INC. is not a credit repair
organization. The service we provide is a 3rd party referral to a Duns
and Bradstreet accredited law firm and real estate company.</i></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
That company is National Legal Help. Loan-Safe.org is merely one of our affiliates, of which we have many.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
Needless to say, Moe never actually made good on his threat to call the FBI on us. He knows he's full of crap. His email was sent in December 2011, we're still in business (in fact we're expanding faster than ever before) and we still haven't heard a word from the feds.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
In addition, Moe has slandered our company's good name on his forum (and remember that anyone can post anything on a forum, doesn't mean it's even remotely accurate). He's called us a scam, a loan mod company, and accused us of pretending to be Fannie Mae and HUD, none of which are true. We have never been a loan mod company, we do strictly litigation (and for good reason - loan modifications have a terrible track record of not working, since there is no legal pressure or incentive for the bank to work with the homeowner). He's also said the following about our company:</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
"They are now making it look like they are not only LoanSafe.org., but also Fannie Mae and .Gov mortgage programs."</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
This is also a TOTAL LIE. We don't own any .gov domains (it's impossible for a non-government entity to purchase them) and we do not pretend to be Fannie Mae. We don't use their logo or name ANYWHERE on our site nationallegalhelp.com, nor does our affiliate company loan-safe.org Furthermore, while we do offer doc prep services for some Fannie Mae and HUD programs, many other law firms also do this and it's perfectly legal (that said, it's NOT our main specialization - we are first and foremost a litigation firm). And we have <b>never </b>posed as Fannie Mae or HUD, because simply put, we do not call ourselves a government agency! We are a private law firm that sues the banks for predatory lending. COMPLETELY DIFFERENT INDUSTRY. Learn the difference, Moe! </div>

Moe Bedard has lied his head off, and still hasn't produced the name of a single person that we supposedly "scammed". We have a 100% refund clause in our contracts, that is in bold red letters - not fine print, not invisible ink. If our firm for any reason fails to perform the services for which it has been retained in the contract, the client is guaranteed a full refund. Most law firms don't even have a refund policy.</div>

Moe Bedard of
LoanWorkout.org, LoanSafe.org and Loan Safe Solutions spins a tangled web of
deceit. The self-proclaimed community based, grass roots, consumer leader was
exposed today, by an ex-employee, for being a fraud, liar, manipulator and scam
artist. Loan Safe’s Moe Bedard has deceived not only the homeowners of America,
facing the toughest time of their life’s, <b>but also hundreds of his own
employees who are now unemployed. </b></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
Moe Bedard’s
website <a href="http://www.loansafe.org/">www.LoanSafe.org</a> is quoted saying
Loan Safe is “based on the simple premise of “paying it forward”. We help you,
you help him, he helps her and so on and so on….. No strings attached ever and
no favors needed to be paid back. Just pay it forward to the next person in
need of help!.....” </div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
Well Moe
Bedard sure did pay it forward …… in a negative, economy crushing way!!!! Way
to go Moe! Not only are your employees out of work but you have deceived the
American people. </div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<b>Moe Bedard has
spent the past year of his life/career at Loan Safe manipulating and
distracting the American homeowner, the US Government, the media, the Banks,
and his own employees. Moe Bedard has accused everyone (from Wall Street to the
Government) of causing the home foreclosure crisis. However, Mr. Bedard has
done nothing to help the problem or to help Americans.</b> The one thing Moe Bedard
has successfully done is increase the outrage of homeowners across the country.
Moe has increased the homeowners paranoia, finger pointing, and distrust of
Wall Street and the US Government making it more difficult (if not impossible)
for all parties involved to solve the problems at hand.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
Moe Bedard has
spent countless hours planning events and protesting at Banks such as Morgan
Stanley, calling it “Save the Dream Campaigns”. Moe Bedard rallies together
frightened homeowners with aggressive advocacy groups causing turmoil and
chaos. I fail to see whose dream is being fulfilled. These types of actions are
negative and help no one. The banks are being distracted from performing their job
duties and the homeowners are getting riled up and outraged. Moe Bedard
convinces the homeowners to complain and rebel instead of helping to fix their
current circumstances. Other foreclosure prevention companies who are trying to work with
the banks and homeowners are being distracted in their efforts in order to do
damage control.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
Moe Bedard is
constantly trying to ruin the reputations of legitimate Foreclosure Law Firms, accusing them of defrauding consumers, stealing money, and ruining
the lives of hundreds of homeowners. These companies are doing the right thing,
forcing banks to come to the table to work out settlements with the homeowners, following
government guidelines, saving homeowners from losing their homes, and employing
hundreds to thousands of out-of-work Americans. </div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
The only
logical explanation for this type of behavior is to manipulate the public. I
call it “The Die Hard 3 Movie Explanation”. In the movie Die Hard 3 everyone in
the city is being distracted by chaos in one side of the city and the crooks
are on the other side of the city stealing all of the gold. Moe Bedard is the
king of spin and deceit and the second you are looking to the left he will
steal everything you have on the right. Loan Safe’s Moe Bedard is not prejudice
against whose life he ruins for he has no morals. As proven in the article
below (from <a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/">www.Ripoffreport.com</a> <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/">http://www.ripoffreport.com/</a>> ) he will even ruin the lives of those who
worked for him.</div>

recently. I will state indisputable facts in this post. Moe Bedard can try to
justify his actions or give his own spin, but any reader can easily verify this
information.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
California law
requires companies acting as loan modification processing companies be

such affiliation.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
California law
requires that the individuals acting in the capacity of 'negotiator' have a
valid California Real Estate Salespersons License. This person has conversation
with the homeowner and the bank <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>>

</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<b>The above
information can be verified at the California DRE website.</b></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
One of the
reasons that Loan Safe does not have a broker's license <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>> is that <b style="color: orange;">Moe Bedard, aka Maurice Clement
Bedard Jr. is a convicted felon and had his salespersons license REVOKED by the
DRE on August 8, 2005. The revoked license number is 01237996. You can look
this up on the net or call the DRE in Sacramento to verify.</b></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
The reason his
licensed was revoked is that his felony convictions involved 'moral turpitude'.
Wikipedia defines 'moral turpitude' as a legal concept in the United States
that refers to 'conduct that is considered contrary to community standards of
justice, honesty or good morals.'</div>

got out of prison, Moe began working on the idea of Loan Safe in early 2007.
The website loansafe.org went live that summer. The actual 'for profit'
business <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>> of Loan Safe Solutions opened to the public
in May 2008. Moe makes claims that loansafe.org is a 'not for profit' (same as
non-profit), however the company is not registered with the IRS <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>> as a 501(c)(3) Non-profit organization.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
The website
loansafe.org, is actually an extremely good source of information for
distressed homeowners to help themselves with the support of the loansafe
community of volunteers. For homeowners who want help from an attorney,
Loansafe.org has their 'selected' attorney or law firm advertise on their site
for a marketing <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>> fee which is paid to Loan Safe Solutions. A
portion of EVERY retainer fee collected by the law firm which got the lead from
Loansafe.org is paid to Loan Safe Solutions.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
The Law
Offices and Loan Safe Solutions are separate entities. However, Moe calls the
shots at both. The attorneys <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>> do their attorney work, but regarding
policies & procedures for Loan Safe cases, we all know Moe is basically in
charge. </div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
Once the fee
has been paid by the homeowner and the required paperwork has been exchanged
and received by the salesperson <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>> aka 'Mortgage Investigator', the case is then
handed over to Loan Safe Solutions for the forensic auditing and processing of
the modification with the lender. The 'Forensic Loan Audit' may or may not play
a part in the negotiations with the lender <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>>
. As the Federal Loan Modification programs become generally accepted by the lenders,
the audit will become unnecessary in most cases.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
While the case
is being processed at Loan Safe Solutions, the auditing staff of 2 young
ladies, probably no more than 24 years old and each with just a few years
experience in the RE business review the old loan for violations and prepare
the loan audit. <b>Neither one of these persons have Real Estate Salesperson
licenses.</b></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
The processing
staff of just 2 people as of last Friday, prepare the submission of the loan
modification file to the lender. Neither one of these persons have Real Estate
Salesperson licenses. It is the job <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>> of the processing staff to submit the file to
the lender and to follow the progress of the case with the lender's loss
mitigation agent. The processor/negotiator person discusses information and
terms of proposals between the homeowner and loss mitigation person at the
lender. </div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
You may have
noticed that there has not yet been an attorney involved in the case. As a
practical matter, the attorney who is assigned to these cases is a young man
who just graduated from law school and passed the bar within the last 2 years.
The supervising attorneys were admitted to the bar in June 2005 and June 2006.
The attorney assigned to a case may or may not review the file in the early
stages and talk with the homeowner on the phone <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>>
. The attorney generally make the final call to discuss the proposed
modification with the homeowner and will advise them as appropriate.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
At this point,
it would be helpful for the reader to understand the layout of the offices and
the relationship to the law firms. Loan Safe Solutions occupies a leased
building in Corona. There is approximately 6,000 sq. ft. of office space <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>>
. On 1 side of the building the Loan Safe Solutions corporate staff and support
personnel have offices. The other side of the building is the 'Law Office' staff,
the actual attorney office and processing. There is no physical separation
between Loan Safe Solutions and the Law Office sales staff. The salespeople
'Mortgage Investigators' used to occupy about 30 cubicles. The attorney has a
separate locked office. The Law Office personnel and Loan Safe Solutions
personnel can freely move about the shared office space. In fact, the phone
lines <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>> that come in are answered by persons employed
by Loan Safe and they can transfer to either Loan Safe or the Law Offices.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
In the
building adjacent to Loan Safe, there is another law office which feeds cases
to Loan Safe Solutions.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">

<div class="MsoPlainText">
In September
2008, the very experienced and savvy B2B <<a href="http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm">http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/437/RipOff0437745.htm</a>> Sales Manager left the company over growing
frustration over cases not being handled properly and the huge increase in
complaint calls from brokers and homeowners.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<b> </b><b>In September
2008, Moe abruptly shut down the 'B2B' division of Loan Safe and laid off
almost all of the sales staff.</b></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
In September
2008 the original Law Firm #1 ceased taking on Loan Safe cases. Law Firm #2 was
created.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<b> </b><b>In November,
the V.P. of Operations suddenly resigned, citing dissatisfaction with the
processing method as being overly complicated and time consuming. Moe's
frequent verbal abuses of the personnel was also a contributing factor to
resigning.</b></div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Talk about the kettle calling the pot black - Moe Bedard's Loansafe is itself BEING SUED for trademark infringement!</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br />
Loan Safe
Solutions received a trademark infringement complaint in late 2008 initiated by
First American Title Company. First American has a division called Corelogic
which has had a product on the market for many years called <a href="http://www.corelogic.com/products/loansafe-2-0.aspx" style="color: #6fa8dc;">LoanSafe 2.0</a>. The
complaint alleges trademark infringement of the LoanSafe trademark by Loan Safe
Solutions. As yet, unresolved.</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
</div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<b>In January
2009, the CEO of Loan Safe left the operation due to differences of opinion on
the proper operation of the business.</b></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">

We sent Moe all of the above information, to show that we are not some fly-by-night outfit of amateurs, we know our stuff and we diligently do our research, and if we really wanted to put him out of business, we could easily do it without "ripping off" his website (for the record, our affiliate <a href="http://loan-safe.org/">Loan-Safe.org's site</a> actually looks nothing like <a href="http://www.loansafe.org/">Moe Bedard's site</a> - his site is full of spam and shady ads for predatory loans, where as our affiliate's site is clean and free of sponsored ads). If he REALLY wants to accuse us of being a scam, he should answer about all his own skeletons in the closet first. If we were scammers like Moe, it wouldn't be hard for him to find negative testimony from our former clients and employees - but he hasn't, and the reason is simple: there just isn't any. Yeah there are rumors, but no actual negative testimony from anyone who's worked with us or hired us. Moe still has not provided us with a list of the clients that he claims we have "scammed". We've still heard nothing from the FTC or the FBI. And our client base is growing faster than ever before, ironically mostly through referrals from satisfied clients. Extraordinary accusations demand extraordinary proof - and Moe is just a professional liar and conman who doesn't have any.<br />

Hardly professional language for a guy who is supposedly a foreclosure prevention professional. Not only is he practicing real estate/loan negotiation without a license, he also is totally lacking in professional respect and civility.<br />
<br />
Here's a thought, Moe - Instead of screaming like a castrated dog and calling us names, why don't you actually give us the name at least ONE person that we have supposedly scammed? EVIDENCE PLEASE. You are talking to a Law Firm, you understand that, right? It's not what you want to believe, it's what you can PROVE beyond any reasonable doubt. <b>Show us, Moe - just <i>whom </i>have we scammed? </b>Screaming louder and threatening us with death (or whatever being "taken out" means in your paranoid mind) doesn't make your lies any truer. In fact, if you're not careful from this point on, it could get you arrested - AGAIN. And then the entire non-licensed LoanSafe empire will come crashing down.<br />
<br />
And we'll still be here, helping exploited homeowners with REAL legal solutions that get settlements in their favor, <b>not </b>the bank's.<br />
