Protecting the Rights of Consumers For Over 25 Years

The Federal Communications Commission warns that a robocaller is calling homeowners across the country and posing as the homeowner's mortgage provider. Oftentimes, the homeowner has previously sought relief from their actual mortgage lender and may expect to be contacted. The callers frequently know details regarding the homeowner's name, address, and their current or former mortgage lending institution. These callers are spoofing their caller-ID to appear to be the homeowner's actual mortgage lending institution.

As the FCC points out, these callers frequently threaten foreclosure, but then offer relief if the homeowner makes specified payments, which – unbeknownst to the homeowner – are directed to Green Mirage's agents and not to the homeowner's lender. This company -- Green Mirage -- has impersonated over 400 mortgage institutions and caused hundreds of thousands of dollars of losses to deceived homeowners. Many victims only learned of the fraud when their actual lender initiated foreclosure proceedings.

If you have received a possible scam robocall or call using a spoofed telephone number:

• Do not share any personal or financial information.

• If you're not sure, hang up and call the institution using their publicly available, legitimate phone number.
