truth Fellow blogger and all around good guy, David Petrovich once wrote,

"Sometimes, the offer of a helping hand is really a cement lifejacket in disguise."

This week I received contact from two people who had "issues" with the same foreclosure rescue company. That's what I thought. My mistake.

It turns out that the company they had an issue with was more of a franchise. Each branch seems to be independently owned and operated. They were dealing with two independent companies.

I did a quick search and found some of these branches had run afoul of the law.

Here's just a couple:

BTW: I wrote about the 86 year old woman's story when it happened. I remember it not because she was 86 and lost her home but that she was working THREE JOBS trying to keep her home before going to the foreclosure rescue scammers.

So I would like to hear your story. Have you had bad dealings with a rescue firm? If so, don't send me an email - add your comments to this post and I'll publish it.

Tell your story. It doesn't have to be short, use as much space as you need. Be complete.

And yes, you can do it anonymously if you like.

I blogged about these so-called "rescuers" a while back too. I didn't have any specific stories though. I just knew there were people out there who were preying on others who were desperate. Good luck with this. If you can stop just one family from losing everything, it will be worth it.

Mike - Good way to help give consumers some insight that they need whether they are in trouble or to prevent trouble from happening in the first place.

Lisa - I have a Foreclosure Help blog that sees a good deal of traffic, so I get to hear some very tragic stories. The Foreclosure Report   I'd be honored if you had something you would like to contribute.  (hint, hint)

Jason - Yup.  I could publish their emails or better yet I'd rather have the public see it for themselves as it's written.  Oh and I'd be honored as well, (double hint, hint)
