Consumers warned about bogus loan modification offers

If history is any guide, scammers will surely try to take advantage of news of the largest consumer protection settlement in U.S. history.
"Whenever there is a large settlement or federal claims program, scam artists come out of the woodwork," said Senior Assistant Attorney General Doug Walsh, who heads up the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division.
"They offer to assist victims for a fee, when the services are actually available for free. Don't take the bait. Distressed homeowners can get counseling and, where appropriate, legal assistance for no cost."
