Thom Hartmann: The foreclosure fraud scandal may be worse than we all think

Thom plus logo
You need to know this. The foreclosure fraud scandal may be worse than we all think.
An audit of 400 foreclosures in San Francisco found that 99% of them had "legal problems or suspicious documents." This new finding comes after the recent $26 billion mortgage settlement between 48 states and the 5 biggest mortgage lenders on Wall Street.
Many argue that $26 billion is not nearly enough to compensate for the damage these banks did to millions of families through fraudulent foreclose practices - and this recent study out of San Francisco appears to back that claim up.
