Woodbridge Mortage caught in Ponzi scheme SALEM — Th e Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services’ Divi- sion of Financial Regulation issued a cease-and-desist order against Woodbridge Mortgage Investment for running an unfortunately all-too-common real estate — also known as a prom- issory note — investment scam. Woodbridge raised mon- ey from approximately 70 Oregonians for an invest- ment program that was not registered with the division. Woodbridge salespersons, most of whom were not li- censed to sell investments, promised investors that their money would be secured by a mortgage in real estate. Th e division’s investiga- tion revealed that Wood- bridge did not in fact record any mortgages. In December 2017, Woodbridge stopped mak- ing interest payments and fi led for bankruptcy. Because Woodbridge failed to record mortgages on the real estate, Quality Local Care... state regulators. In Oregon, fi ve investiga- tions resulted in fi ve enforce- ment actions. Th e division is providing these four tips to protect yourself before in- vesting in a promissory note: 1. Call the division’s con- sumer advocacy team at 888-877-4894 (toll-free) to con-fi rm that the notes are registered or legally exempt from registration. 2. Research the company. Understand how it will pay principal and interest on the note, as well as the costs to promote it, and fi nd out the seller commissions. 3. Be suspicious of notes off ering a high guaranteed rate of return. 4. If repayment is secured by an interest in real estate, confi rm with a third party that a mortgage or trust deed is recorded on the property, and that no other liens exist. Promissory notes en- courage many types of in- vestment scams. A written guarantee is not proof of a note’s legitimacy. Before making any fi nancial deci- sions, ask questions, do your homework, and contact our advocates at 888-877-4894 (toll-free) with questions about the product or person selling it.
