The State of Arizona has filed a lawsuit against a company accused of a foreclosure help scam. According to the allegations in the civil lawsuit, the Guardian Group charged borrowers up front fees in order to modify their loans, but rarely provided the service. The Arizona Attorney general has claimed that the company misrepresented, among other things, the amount of principal reduction to be expected, that it had investors ready to purchase their loans and the amount of refunds.
