Bad Guys Take Advantage of Kansas City Homeowners

Bad Guys Take Advantage of Kansas City Homeowners

Phillip A. Flora, A Huntington Beach, California man hunted down people who were behind on the mortgage payments and sold the leads. That didn’t get Phillip in trouble. So what did get him into trouble? It was how he got the leads.

Phillip Flora was promoting his website loanmodgov.net as a U.S. government affiliated website. The website tricked unsuspecting mortgage borrowers into providing personal contact information. Phillip sent out over 5 million illegal text messages promoting his website. Cell phone users would pay fees to cell phone carriers for the text messages.

Once Phillip Flora would get borrowers information, even from cease and desist request, Phillip would sell the leads as “debt settlement leads.”

The text-spamming scheme is facing an FTC complaint. Phillips assets have been frozen and he has a permanent injunction to prevent him from texting to promote his business ever again.
