* Mazzarella and Grimm recruited individuals (straw buyers) to make offers to purchase homes in Las Vegas at substantially above the seller's asking price. Once the purchase was negotiated, the straw buyers applied for mortgages from financial institutions. Mazzarella and Grimm placed, or caused to be placed, false information regarding the straw buyers' places of employment, income and assets on the mortgage loan applications in order to ensure that the straw buyers could qualify for the loans.

LAS VEGAS - A Las Vegas real estate broker and her husband are facing federal charges they made millions of dollars orchestrating a mortgage fraud scheme.

U.S. Attorney for Nevada Gregory Brower says Eve Mazzarella, 30, and her husband, Steven Grimm, 45, were indicted Wednesday on bank fraud, money laundering and aiding and abetting charges.

The government alleges Mazzarella and Grimm bought more than 200 properties at inflated values using limited liability companies and more than 400 straw buyers to make purchase offers.

The couple allegedly controlled transactions worth more than $100 million. They allegedly defaulted on mortgage payments on many of the loans, causing at least 118 properties to be sold in foreclosure.

Eve Mazzarella is such a cold-blooded rip off artist, she ripped my dad off $200,000.00 for a deed of trust which she had put fake document numbers that was never recorded, when investigated we had to pressure her and accompany her to the recorders office to have it finally recorded, then she stops paying him the monthly interest and then let the property foreclose, she is the worst nightmare for us. Hope you enjoy your time in federal prison and when and if you get out, you will be so proud because you always wanted to be famous, well now you are nationally. Maybe they will have an re-enactment of you on the show FBI files since you are so cruel to rip-off so many innocent people and senior citizens of their life savings.
