I don't feel bad for him because I warned him of this fraud when the same man approached me. I had a feeling this is what the guy was doing and warned him not to go ahead with it, but he did anyways.

Is that really being duped though? Someone asks to pay you so that you use your name for the mortgage and you simply say "yes". I fail to see the trickery here. Sounds like someone just got greedy and thought it was easy money?
