Jeff,IMO we need to be seeing more of that PROSECUTION word floating around here!

There were 3 witnesses for the prosecution and the entire incident was on our security camera system, so there simply could be no denying of the facts.

This same statue has not often been used to prosecute the previous homeowner who wasted the house prior to a sale.

That's a horrible thing, and anyone doing that should be prosecuted fully.

In Arizona, there has been several prosecutions of pre-foreclosure investors (I use the term investor here loosely) where they have received jail sentences for "rent skimming".

I see may people that have HEARD about practices of short sale fraud, but when asked specifically what they've experienced personally most people say "none" - The actual prosecutions of short sale fraud is 1-2% of overall mortgage fraud if you go to the FBI website.

jon is correct, MOs can be easily forged as well. i would get a pen. they work well. the bank that took the bills is required to send them to the secret service. to be honest, it would be VERY, VERY difficult to prosecute. there is really not a way to prove (legally) who gave you the bills.even mike seperating the bills would not protect him. billions of $$$ of currency exchange hands, there is no way to prove that those are the bills they gave u. as is with a check, the person that deposits can be held responsible. even if being held 'responsible' means justnot getting credit for the funds. if u really want to be safe, get a mobile blacklight currency detector.

That "The Plan" was subterfuge is now historically factual - the REAL plan is now obvious and should be criminally prosecuted for its fraudulent and damaging realities.

I would immediately go talk to your local police or prosecutor to get the process started toward criminal prosecution for writing bad checks.

I don't charge a dime to the seller either, but that does not eliminate you from possible prosecution according to my attorney who is my council on this subject matter.FYI: My attorney also has strongly advised to use the PSA and not an option contract for short sales here in CA.What does your attorney say?
