According to reports from KESQ.com, a new foreclosure rescue scam has sprung up in California.
Residents have received mail offers for foreclosure-fighting services from a company called M & A Associates.
Unfortunately, the company's offer is a scam and they fraudulently used the Better Business Bureau's logo on their mailings to make themselves seem more legitimate.
For struggling homeowners, a scam like this can cost serious money and might endanger home ownership.
Be on the lookout for any anti-foreclosure offer that you receive.
Always do background research before committing to an offer.
The company claimed that it stopped using the BBB logo on its materials.
For the record, Total Bankruptcy has legitimately been accredited by the BBB.
