A chilling report coming from Settlement Quotes, LLC suggests that the website of Patriot Settlement Resources "appears to have been hacked over the weekend and is now spreading a series of malicious software from their website". Andrew Cravenho suggests that the Trojan virus affecting visitors to Patriots's website is not hosted on the company servers.
Apparently the virus has been active for about 24 hours and as of this morning Google was posting warnings when the website showed up in their rankings but not on the Adsense (pay per click) results.

Unfortunately this has to be a complete disaster for Patriot Settlement Resources, who repeatedly use the American flag symbol and the seal of the Better Business Bureau to promote "cash now" fraud, falsely imply that tort victims will get the full sum of money due them by selling structured settlement payment rights and who, in my opinion (as a result of such promotion), represent the lowest level of "cash now pusher" filth.
One can't help but wonder what personal identifiable information involving annuitants has been affected by the hacking of Patriot's web site.
