A person who commits a violation of the provisions of Section 5 of the Mortgage Foreclosure Consultant Fraud Prevention Act is guilty of a fourth degree felony and, upon conviction, shall be sentenced pursuant to Section 31-18-15 NMSA 1978. Each violation of the provisions of Section 5 of the Mortgage Foreclosure Consultant Fraud Prevention Act constitutes a distinct offense. The attorney general or the district attorney for the district in which the violation arose may prosecute any violation of Section 5 of the Mortgage Foreclosure Consultant Fraud Prevention Act. Prosecution or conviction for any violation described in Section 5 of the Mortgage Foreclosure Consultant Fraud Prevention Act does not bar prosecution or conviction for any other offenses. These penalties are cumulative to any other remedies or penalties provided by law.
