ROAD TO RUIN: Mortgage Fraud Scandal Brewing


Criminal fraud may be the most underreported aspect of our current financial crisis. In this “Road to Ruinreport, former subprime lenders from Ameriquest, once the country’s largest lender, describe a system rife with fraud. They describe how a “by-any-means-necessary” policy pushed employees to cut corners and falsify documents on bad mortgages and then sell the toxic assets to Wall Street banks eager to make fast profits.

    1. Mortgages that were based on Fraud?? I think. I want my house back.By The way… a multi million dollar law suit and Jail time for all those who create the terms of those bad agreements. PERSECUTION.

    2. Bank of America is CRIMINAL. Besides all the things they do to credit cards, they are the MAIN PERPETRATOR of Foreclosure Fraud, throwing people out of their homes by forging the documents. DEMAND that your bank produce YOUR ORIGINAL mortgage note with your “wet ink” signature (a copy is insufficient, just like a copy of a dollar bill is not a dollar). If the bank cannot produce YOUR original signed note, they can be sued for the mortgage amount +3 times the amt. They’ve been caught FORGING.

    8. With 700,000 claimants in the recent Ameriquest MDL class action settlement not many of the claimants are aware that we will only be getting around $30 each in the settlement after lawyers fees and other agreements in the suit. It is not fair! I am hoping the Judge agrees and the suit starts over.

    9. Im glas that Ameriquest will be paying out to many homeowners which they ripped off here soon in the mdl class action settlement. those people are worse than vultures.

    10. It almost happened to me. Buyer beware -kiss my *ss, thaitanium12.
      I was relying on the expertise of the lawyers, brokers, realtors, title company, and closing agent.
      The ONLY reason I knew something was wrong was because I had accidentally found a few articles about mortgage fraud while looking up something else, or I’d have never known the “little” mistakes, blank areas on paperwork, the lawyers (who were for the BANK, not me as my realtor intimated) wanting power of Attorney were suspect.

    12. Excellent video! Thanks for posting this. I have reason to believe it, 100%!

    13. This all STARTED with BIll Clinton signing into law the “Community Reinvestment Act” lowering the lending standards. This was the Gov’t telling the Banks to dangle that carrot and yell at the top of their lungs “We Finance Anyone with NO MONEY DOWN” like a used car dealer. ACORN picketed & obama sued Banks to give risky loans. obama & others received millions for their part in all of this SCHEME and the gov’t continues to blame the lending institutions, but will not accept any responsibility!

    14. You have to laugh don’t you poor people trying to get rich without working relying on the price of their (well the banks) property to increse in value. Ever heard of caveat emptor, buyer beware? On a lighter note I have one tower bridge for sale located in London, quick sale required buyer to remove.

    15. It’s starting all over again with appraisal management companies driviin by lowest fees and fastest turn times. Some of the largest amc’s are now owned by the largest subprime lenders. Look at streetlinks

    16. this video is gud…!!!!

      is 1/2 the reason why the USA is in such shit.

    18. Please search “Mortgage Madness” The series is 6 parts and is extremely detailed of this PLAN called a CRISIS.

    19. There were mortgages underwritten based solely on the verbal disclosure of the borrower. The lender did NOT want to know if the borrower could pay it back or not. Either the house went up in value or the borrower got foreclosed, either way the lender won.

    20. @jxh261

      You obviously have not been in the lending business.
      Buyers / Borrowers knew what they were doing. Don’t go putting the entire blame on the loan officer.

      A borrower only needs a few loan denials to figure out that the next time they apply for a loan, they know what to say, how to say it and what documents to provide or produce.

    21. This video is very well done!

    22. When you apply for a loan you bring your current pay stub and your credit history gets checked. Please explain to me how the buyer can be blamed for taking loans out they couldn’t afford when it’s the loan officer’s job to check and re-check the borrowers ability to pay that loan. There is no way the buyer can fake these documents when the bank can check any records they need before approving loans.

      The idiots blaming the borrowers have drank the kool-aid sold to them by Fox news.

    23. credit cards?
      what?
      who missed what point again?

    24. but they might not know that their credit cards were over the limit because of fraudulent charges – guess you missed that point!

    25. Greed and deception fuels the world and this is what you get! It’s not over yet.
