    Re: Liar Loans a Felony in Texas

    The loan becomes a felony when the money changes hands and the victim can file criminal charges with the local police. I had a lovely chat with a detective in Texas just today. Anyone who is making a false statement on any loan papers better think twice. Just $200,000 or more for a loan with fraudulent papers is a first degree felony. Yikes!

    Good luck!
