Former loan officer pleads guilty in refinance scam
To view links in this forum your post count must be 10 or greater. Your post count is 0 momentarily., (OH) reports that Jason McCord, a former Lewis Center mortgage broker, pleaded guilty in Federal Court to processed refinance applications for his company, JR Lending, and for Q3 Mortgage, where he worked as a consultant.
The loans were processed online. Without the applicant’s knowledge, McCord inflated an applicant’s earnings and the amount of the loan, then pocketed the difference, said Internal Revenue Service spokesman Craig Casserly.
IRS special agent Lisa DiSalvo testified that McCord used the false information to earn commissions totaling $658,343. Some of the victims didn’t know they had been defrauded until IRS agents contacted them during the investigation, Casserly said.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Dan Brown and McCord’s attorney, Alan Pfeuffer, disagreed on how much restitution is owed to victims. Federal Judge Gregory Frost said he will hold a hearing before determining how much should be repaid.
The judge allowed McCord to live with his fiancee in Connecticut while he awaits sentencing. Frost said he allowed the “unusual” arrangement because the prosecutor did not object.
