Information about individual foreclosures is publicly available, with anyone able to access information such as the owner's name and address, and in some states, other sensitive information. This means that homeowners in foreclosure can become the target of mortgage loan scammers who seek to take advantage of their situation. The Homeownership Preservation Foundation, which provides information and financial education to guide consumers toward the path of sustainable homeownership, is alerting homeowners to resources that will help them avoid being victimized by unscrupulous companies conducting mortgage loan modification and foreclosure rescue scams.
