They may have some oversight and have an ability to do that. Also call your states attorney general and see what ways they might be able to help you. I am getting tons of traffic on this article. Apparently everyone is freaking out and searching google and getting my page. I have several people a week call me thinking that I am Smith Grumman... Ha... I am hardly a fan right now. I client of mine is still working with them and it appears that the workers are all using their personal email and i assume personal phones now as the corporate infrastructure is basically shut down. I learned later after talking with this client that they actually used an out of country credit card processor with some shady methods of withdrawal to stop charge backs. He ended up getting charged an international transaction fee by his bank for doing the transaction.

We paid them $1,800 up front, and recently an additional $1,800, just before they were closed down by the Feds. We entered into the Making Homes Affordable program and are in the middle of the trial period. The Debt Advocacy Center asked us for the completion of their fee ($1,800) when it was confirmed that we were entering into the government program. HOWEVER, if they were closed down by the FTC how are they able to still draw money from out account? The last installment (I hope) was withdrawn today, from our bank account. Do you know how we can look into this further? Their telephone numbers are disconnected. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you. Dear Andy,
