    October 2004Present (5 years 2 months)

    1/24/09 - This mortgage fraud site has been up and running since Oct 2004 and I am the sole editor/contributor.

    It takes many hours per week to maintain and update and occasionally other priorities take me away from editing it. I think it contains more information than other similar sites - but I am biased.

    We are are about (on 1/26/09) to change the name and drop the word blog from the title - because of abuse and spam we switched off the comments fields so the site is not a true blog.
