Broward County Judicial Candidate Leonore Greller Faces Scrutiny Over Past Ties To Loan Modification Scam Broward County Judicial Candidate Leonore Greller has figured out that the internet never forgets thanks to Buddy Nevins at Broward Beat . Especially if you were once in the crosshairs of MFI-Miami. The story begins in 2009 when I operated a sister website for MFI-Miami named MFI-Mod Squad . MFI-Mod Squad was nothing more than a blog that exposed scam loan modification companies that popped up in the wake of the financial crisis.

  Caliber Home Loans Fights To Survive Class Action Suit Alleging Violations Of The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act  Caliber Home Loans fights for its life after it was  named as the defendant in a 52-page lawsuit . The lawsuit alleges Caliber Home Loans violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.  The plaintiff states his previous servicer accelerated his loan on March 6, 2010, and filed a foreclosure proceeding against him. The mortgage servicer later dismissed the foreclosure action. Caliber Home Loans obtained the debt after it went into default. The mortgage servicer then sent the plaintiff a collection letter in July 2017 demanding payment and threatening legal action.
