Give me a hat tip for this link -- note the city in the byline:

SACRAMENTO (Reuters) - U.S. officials said on Monday that they had charged 19 people with targeting desperate homeowners facing foreclosure and stealing at least $12.6 million through illegal mortgage and loan activities.

At a news conference in the California capital Sacramento, U.S. Attorney McGregor Scott said "Operation Homewrecker" investigated one of the largest mortgage frauds ever probed by the FBI and the Internal Revenue Service.

"The markets in this country are tottering because nobody knows how much fraud is out there," he said.......... etc etc.

$12.6 million by 19 people? Amateurs! I'm only one person who stole $2.2MM. Welp, time for a well-deserved Jamba Juice financed by Daddy's credit card. Sweet deal!!

Are those numbers right?
2006 almost doubled and went right back down.

Is that a mistype, or did the average homebuyer in 2006 own 2 homes as their primary residence.

Then Again, KC was buying every God forsaken p.o.s. as a personal residence, so that could have skewed the numbers.
