A Mississippi homeowner is living a squatter nightmare after getting duped out of her deed and kicked out of her own house by a local judge, according to reports.
Marcia Naylor of Olive Branch was struggling with bills after her husband’s death and signed up with a local company to borrow against her home so she could keep up with her spiraling finances — only to have a local judge label her a squatter and boot her from her own house, WREG News reported.
“He [told me] he would borrow money against my house to give me wiggle room,” Naylor told the outlet. “I didn’t sign anything. He asked me to share with him a copy of the deed of trust to my home.”
It proved to be a massive mistake when she was hauled into court.
Naylor fell victim to a scam where homeowners are tricked into signing over their deeds to get quick cash from the property’s value — only to have the scammers file a “quitclaim deed” that transfers ownership to them, the Mississippi Better Business Bureau told WREG.
