Homeowners that are looking for a quick way to escape foreclosure are the easiest prey for foreclosure prevention scam artists. Hundreds, if not thousands, of people have lost their money to people who claim to be able to prevent foreclosure.

Individuals who run these scams claim that if you pay them a certain amount of money, they will work with the banks to prevent your foreclosure. What they actually do is take your money, stall for a while and then claim that nothing could be done. Some companies were charging homeowners as much as $750 per month to stall foreclosures. Many scam artists became millionaires within just one year.
