Law Firm ‘Scared the Wits Out of Some People’ With Mistaken Foreclosure Letters
A marketing executive with a California law firm is taking responsibility for some 2,000 letters mistakenly warning San Francisco homeowners that they faced foreclosure.
The letters from the firm Provident & Associates in Pleasanton, Calif., offered to help with loan modifications, the Contra Costa Times reports. “A notice of default was filed against your property initiating the foreclosure process,” the letters began.
Corey Hill, a marketing executive with the law firm, told the newspaper that the letters were his mistake. “I screwed up,” Hill said. “I made a mistake that scared the wits out of some people.”
