Sounds like the guvment is doing it usual bang-up job of "administering" this program.
I was supposed to draw up a real estate contract for a client to sell a rental house to a first time home buyer. There are problems with title, so it drug on. Buyer called awhile back and asked me to be sure an get it done before the end of the year so he could get the 8 grand.
I was talking to seller today, getting the info to finalize the contract, and mentioned that we needed to close soon so buyer could get fed money. Seller told me the guy already got it! How did he do that? There's no contract of sale, nothing to verify that he bought a house. Do you just call the feds and tell 'em, "Hey, I bought a house- send money!"
So now, how many scammers are going to get 8 grand by just making a phone call? Can't those idiots do ANYTHING right? Remember Cash for Clunkers? And these are the clowns who are going to handle my health care? God help us. . .
