We paid shortrefi.com $3600, up front. They talked to Countrywide, our home loan company. Countrywide said congradulations you have reduced your loan by $136.00 per month. Bank of America bought out Countrywide and now Bank of America says we lost your loan mod papers and many, many other poor excuses. We were told to pay the reduced monthly amount. Now about 6 months later they are trying to forclose on us. We had to cough up $4515 to stop all that. So over time we lost $3600 plus 4515 or a total of $8115. But at least now we still have our home and still make the unmodified original amount. I have talked to lawyers that are afraid to take on Bank of America. I am afraid of B of A. I believe they will steal your house any way they can.

Hi masoomeh,

We also have been awarded a judgement against shortrefinow.com, more specifically, Brandon Hintz. We are in the process of trying to collect and are jumping through all the hoops that are required, a major pain in the bootie.

If you email me, we can keep in touch about the process and outcome… Maybe we can get others also that have had similar situations that may have sued or could still sue.. We need to get our money back and so should everyone else who was scammed by this company… and other companies that are operating still that were connected with this one, which is another way we are trying to get our money back..

anyways, you can contact me at: tdr {at} jscoco {dot} com

I am wondering as to how you went about doing your case.. Did you sue the company, the owner, who? We are in the process of this and are going directly at the owner. The company has now been shutdown although they restarted a new one, supposedly with a lawyer and was in the same building until recently.

I am a victim of ShortRefiNow.com which took advantage of people’s economy situation and committed froud. I just won a case against them, but what I earned was a peice of paper saying I was awarded the judgment in my favor. $3500 and 11 months of frustration, and all I got was a peice of paper. I am very sorry that our legal system is so easy to take advantage us. I am sorry that our court system is so much on criminal’s sides. instead of protecting the victims, they make it so hard on victims to persue the complaints, that so many of us just give up and not finish the complaints. I did not give up, but all I got was a judgement on the paper that I am not sure I can do anything with.
