Kings County District Attorney Charles J. Hynes today announced the creation of a telephone hotline victims can use to contact the District Attorney’s new Mortgage Fraud Unit.  The 12-person unit will investigate deed fraud, mortgage fraud, predatory lending and other real estate-related fraud. The number is (718)250-2311.

District Attorney Hynes announced the creation of the new Unit earlier this month, with US Senator Charles E. Schumer.

Assistant District Attorney Richard Farrell is Chief of the Mortgage Fraud Unit. Michael Vecchione is Chief of the Rackets Division.
