  • *annual index is average of four quarters
  • **quarterly dollars may not add up to annual dollars because cases active in more than one quarter during the year were only reflected once in the annual data




  • The FraudBlogger Index was created by MortgageDaily.com and utilizes mortgage fraud data tracked by FraudBlogger.com.

  • The index reflects active criminal and civil mortgage fraud cases.

  • Cases involving larger dollar amounts are given greater value in the index.

  • Excludes foreclosure fraud and investor fraud.

  • If there were no fraud activity tracked during a given quarter, the index would be zero.

  • A minimum of $100,000 was used for all cases tracked including when no amount was available. The national total index is an aggregate of all state data.

  • When no data was available on the dollar amount involved, estimates were based on available data such as the number of properties involved, losses to lenders or the number of charges filed.
