MEMORANDUM OPINION

DEBORAH K. CHASANOW, District Judge.

Presently pending and ready for resolution in this case is a motion to dismiss pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) filed by Defendants Shapiro & Burson, LLP, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. ("Wells Fargo"), and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc. ("MERS") (collectively, "Defendants"). (ECF No. 6).1 The relevant issues have been briefed, and the court now rules pursuant to Local Rule 105.6, no hearing being deemed necessary. For the reasons that follow, the motion to dismiss will be granted as to Plaintiff's federal claims. Plaintiff will be permitted an opportunity to amend her complaint to state a cognizable claim under § 2605(b)(1) of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act ("RESPA"), 12 U.S.C. §§ 2601 et seq. The court will defer consideration of Plaintiff's state law claims until a determination is made regarding the propriety of any amended RESPA claim.

I. Background

A. Factual Background

This case arises from two separate, but related, events: the refinancing of Plaintiff's home in 2007, and the subsequent foreclosure of that home in 2010. The following limited facts regarding these events are largely taken from the complaint, but some of them have been supplemented with information contained in exhibits to Defendants' motion to dismiss.2

At some time prior to September 2007, Plaintiff purchased a home in Bladensburg, Maryland, using a loan financed by Wells Fargo. On September 7, 2007, Plaintiff refinanced the original loan with a $342,000 loan secured by a deed of trust that she also obtained through Wells Fargo.3 The trustee listed on the deed was John Burson, an attorney at Shapiro & Burson. When finalizing the refinancing, Plaintiff alleges that she did not receive 1) an accurate disclosure of the itemized finance charges, 2) a "Good Faith Estimate Disclosure," 3) a disclosure about the "kickback, hidden referral fee and or the yield spread premium charged to Plaintiff," 4) a disclosure about "the affiliated business arrangements of the Lender, the Settlement Company and the Broker," 5) a notice regarding potential transfer of the servicing of Plaintiff's refinanced loan, or (6) a "Special Information Booklet." (ECF No. 1 ¶¶ 16, 26, 27). Additionally, the deed of trust was notarized by a notary in Maryland, although the settlement occurred in Alexandria, Virginia. Defendants also subsequently transferred the servicing of the refinanced loan without informing Plaintiff within fifteen days.

By 2009, Plaintiff had defaulted on the refinanced loan, and foreclosure proceedings ensued in the Circuit Court for Prince George's County. On June 1, 2009, Plaintiff received notice from the court that her home was in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale of Plaintiff's home was subsequently scheduled for August 24, 2010. Plaintiff planned to attend this sale, but it was cancelled at the last minute by a trustee at Shapiro & Burson. When Plaintiff asked the trustee when the sale would be rescheduled, an attorney from Shapiro & Burson instructed the trustee not to inform her of the next sale date. Plaintiff did not receive any other notice about the rescheduled sale date and was not aware when it would occur. On October 18, 2010, Plaintiff was notified that the sale had taken place.4 She filed for chapter 13 bankruptcy protection on November 11, 2010, in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Maryland.5 The circuit court ratified the foreclosure sale on March 29, 2011.

B. Procedural Background

On June 23, 2011, Plaintiff, proceeding pro se, commenced the present action by filing a complaint in this court against Shapiro & Burson, Wells Fargo, MERS, and Abba Title. The complaint sets forth the following eleven counts, apparently as to all defendants: (1) "injunction and restraining order," (2) "mortgage fraud predatory lending," (3) "defective foreclosure failure to give proper notice of pending foreclosure sale," (4) unjust enrichment, (5) gross negligence, (6) violation of the duty of good faith, (7) "defective deed of trust," (8) "set aside or vacate foreclosure," (9) violations of RESPA, (10) fraud, and (11) violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act ("RICO"), 18 U.S.C. § 1961, et seq., and "civil conspiracy to commit mail fraud, and civil conspiracy to commit wire fraud." (ECF No. 1).

After waiving service, Defendants Shapiro & Burson, Wells Fargo, and MERS moved to dismiss all of Plaintiff's claims pursuant to Rule 12(b)(6). (ECF No. 6). Plaintiff obtained counsel and filed an opposition in which she only opposed one of the arguments raised within Defendants' motion.6 Defendants timely replied.

II. Standard of Review

The purpose of a motion to dismiss pursuant to Rule 12(b)(6) is to test the sufficiency of the complaint. Presley v. City of Charlottesville, 464 F.3d 480, 483 (4th Cir. 2006). A plaintiff's complaint need only satisfy the standard of Rule 8(a), which requires a "short and plain statement of the claim showing that the pleader is entitled to relief." Fed.R.Civ.P. 8(a)(2). "Rule 8(a)(2) still requires a `showing,' rather than a blanket assertion, of entitlement to relief." Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 555 n. 3, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007). That showing must consist of more than "a formulaic recitation of the elements of a cause of action" or "naked assertion[s] devoid of further factual enhancement." Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009) (internal quotation marks omitted).

At this stage, the court must consider all well-pleaded allegations in a complaint as true, Albright v. Oliver, 510 U.S. 266, 268, 114 S.Ct. 807, 127 L.Ed.2d 114 (1994), and must construe all factual allegations in the light most favorable to the plaintiff, see Harrison v. Westinghouse Savannah River Co., 176 F.3d 776, 783 (4th Cir.1999) (citing Mylan Labs., Inc. v. Matkari, 7 F.3d 1130, 1134 (4th Cir.1993)). Additionally, complaints filed by pro se plaintiffs are "to be liberally construed ... and a pro se complaint, however inartfully pleaded, must be held to less stringent standards than formal pleadings drafted by lawyers." Erickson v. Pardus, 551 U.S. 89, 94, 127 S.Ct. 2197, 167 L.Ed.2d 1081 (2007) (internal quotation marks and citations omitted).

In evaluating the complaint, regardless of whether it was filed pro se, the court need not accept unsupported legal allegations. Revene v. Charles Cnty. Comm'rs, 882 F.2d 870, 873 (4th Cir.1989). Nor must it agree with legal conclusions couched as factual allegations, Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 1950, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009), or conclusory factual allegations devoid of any reference to actual events, United Black Firefighters v. Hirst, 604 F.2d 844, 847 (4th Cir.1979); see also Francis v. Giacomelli, 588 F.3d 186, 193 (4th Cir.2009). "[W]here the well-pleaded facts do not permit the court to infer more than the mere possibility of misconduct, the complaint has alleged, but it has not `show[n] ... that the pleader is entitled to relief.'" Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 679, 129 S.Ct. 1937 (quoting Fed.R.Civ.P. 8(a)(2)). Thus, "[d]etermining whether a complaint states a plausible claim for relief will ... be a context-specific task that requires the reviewing court to draw on its judicial experience and common sense." Id.

Moreover, allegations of fraud — which Plaintiff raises in both her RICO and state law claims — are subject to a heightened pleading standard under Rule 9(b). Harrison, 176 F.3d at 783-84. Rule 9(b) states that "in alleging a fraud or mistake, a party must state with particularity the circumstances constituting the fraud or mistake. Malice, intent, knowledge, and other conditions of a person's mind may be alleged generally." Such allegations typically "include the `time, place and contents of the false representation, as well as the identity of the person making the misrepresentation and what [was] obtained thereby.'" Superior Bank, F.S.B. v. Tandem Nat'l Mortg., Inc., 197 F.Supp.2d 298, 313-14 (D.Md.2000) (quoting Windsor Assocs., Inc. v. Greenfeld, 564 F.Supp. 273, 280 (D.Md.1983)). In cases involving concealment or omissions of material facts, however, meeting Rule 9(b)'s particularity requirement will likely take a different form. See Shaw v. Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corp., 973 F.Supp. 539, 552 (D.Md.1997) (recognizing that an omission likely "cannot be described in terms of the time, place, and contents of the misrepresentation or the identity of the person making the misrepresentation" (internal quotations omitted)). The purposes of Rule 9(b) are to provide the defendant with sufficient notice of the basis for the plaintiff's claim, to protect the defendant against frivolous suits, to eliminate fraud actions where all of the facts are learned only after discovery, and to safeguard the defendant's reputation. See Harrison, 176 F.3d at 784. In keeping with these objectives, "[a] court should hesitate to dismiss a complaint under Rule 9(b) if the court is satisfied (1) that the defendant[s were] made aware of the particular circumstances for which [they] will have to prepare a defense at trial and (2) that [the] plaintiff has substantial prediscovery evidence of those facts." Id.

Additionally, one of the grounds on which Defendants seek dismissal is the statute of limitations. The statute of limitations is an affirmative defense that a party typically must raise in a pleading under Fed.R.Civ.P. 8(c) and is not usually an appropriate ground for dismissal. See Eniola v. Leasecomm Corp., 214 F.Supp.2d 520, 525 (D.Md.2002); Gray v. Metts, 203 F.Supp.2d 426, 428 (D.Md. 2002). Nevertheless, dismissal is proper "when the face of the complaint clearly reveals the existence of a meritorious affirmative defense." Brooks v. City of Winston-Salem, N.C., 85 F.3d 178, 181 (4th Cir.1996); see also Rice v. PNC Bank, N.A., No. PJM 10-07, 2010 WL 1711496, at *3 (D.Md. Apr. 26, 2010) (granting a motion to dismiss claims brought pursuant to the Truth in Lending Act ("TILA"), 15 U.S.C. §§ 1601 et seq., because they were untimely).

III. Analysis

The complaint, which is in this court on the basis of federal question jurisdiction,7 attempts to assert both federal and state law claims. The nature of the claims that Plaintiff intends to allege, however, is somewhat unclear and is complicated by the fact that the complaint appears to be copied from other sources. Indeed, it contains an allegation referencing an organization with no apparent relationship to this case and frequently uses pronouns inconsistent in gender and in number with the nouns they appear to reference. Its sparse allegations are also not presented in chronological order and are frequently repeated in various counts of the complaint.

As to Plaintiff's federal claims, the complaint expressly lists counts based on violations of RESPA and RICO. At various places throughout the complaint, Plaintiff also points to sections of the Code of Federal Regulations referencing TILA requirements, and she requests "[a]ll applicable [s]tatutory damages for violations of [TILA]" in the prayer for relief. (ECF No. 1, at 14). Accordingly, the complaint will be construed as attempting to allege violations of RESPA, RICO, and TILA.8

Defendants have moved to dismiss these federal claims by contending that they are either (1) not actionable because Congress has not provided a private right of action as to certain violations, (2) untimely, or (3) insufficiently pled to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Although Plaintiff opposed Defendants' motion to dismiss in part, she did not respond to any of these arguments.

A. RESPA Claims

"RESPA sought to provide consumers with a better understanding of the home purchase and settlement process, and to reduce, when possible, `unnecessarily high settlement charges caused by certain abusive practices.'" Proctor v. Metro. Money Store Corp., 645 F.Supp.2d 464, 484 (D.Md. 2009) (quoting 12 U.S.C. § 2601). Plaintiff alleges that Defendants violated RESPA by failing to provide her with a "Special Information Booklet" and a "Good Faith Estimate as required by [RESPA]," by failing to notify her of "their intention to transfer the servicing of the loan" and "of the actual transfer" of the loan servicing contract, and by failing to disclose hidden fees, such as kickbacks, and "affiliated business arrangements of the Lender, the Settlement Company and the Broker" at settlement. (ECF No. 1 ¶¶ 26, 27, 90-93).

RESPA creates a private right of action for only three types of wrongful acts: (1) failure of a loan servicer to provide proper notice about a transfer of servicing rights or to respond to a qualified written request for loan information, 12 U.S.C. § 2605; (2) payment of a kickback or unearned fees for real estate settlement services, 12 U.S.C. § 2607;9 and (3) requiring a buyer to use a title insurer chosen by the seller, 12 U.S.C. § 2608. See McKinney v. Fulton Bank, 776 F.Supp.2d 97, 103 (D.Md.2010). Two of the alleged violations asserted by Plaintiff — the failure to provide the "Special Information Booklet" and "Good Faith Estimate" are not covered by these sections. Therefore, these allegations necessarily fail at the outset because RESPA does not provide Plaintiff with a private right of action to pursue them. See Dalton v. Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., 828 F.Supp.2d 1242, 1249-50 (D.Colo.2011) (concluding that there is no private right of action for violations of RESPA sections relating to special information booklets); McKinney, 776 F.Supp.2d at 103 (dismissing a RESPA claim alleging failure to provide "an accurate good faith estimate" due to lack of a private right of action).

Plaintiff's remaining allegations stem from purported violations of §§ 2605 and 2607. Claims brought under § 2605 are governed by a three-year statute of limitations, while claims brought under § 2607 are subject to a one-year statute of limitations. 12 U.S.C. § 2614. The limitations period begins to run "from the date of the occurrence of the violation," which generally refers to the date of closing for loan origination violations. See id.; Findlay v. CitiMortgage, Inc., 813 F.Supp.2d 108, 117 (D.D.C.2011); Brown v. Wilmington Fin., No. CCB-11-699, 2012 WL 975541, at *4 (D.Md. Mar. 21, 2012). Here, both the complaint and the deed of trust indicate that the refinancing closed on September 7, 2007. Plaintiff, however, did not file her complaint until June 23, 2011, nearly four years later. Thus, regardless of whether the one-year or three-year limitations period applies, Plaintiff's allegations relating to nondisclosure at settlement of hidden fees, affiliated business arrangements, and the potential for post-closing transfer of the loan servicing contract are time-barred.10

As to Defendants' purported failure to provide Plaintiff with notice about the alleged post-closing transfer of her loan servicing contract, the statute of limitations argument is unpersuasive. The face of the complaint does not indicate when the servicing of Plaintiff's loan was subsequently transferred, instead stating only that "Defendants ... failed to inform Plaintiff of the actual transfer within fifteen... days before the effective date of the transfer." (ECF No. 1 ¶ 91).11 Because the complaint does not indicate the date on which the loan servicing contract was transferred, it is unclear whether Plaintiff's claim is time-barred, and dismissal on limitations grounds is improper. See Brooks, 85 F.3d at 181 (noting that a motion to dismiss based on the expiration of the statute of limitations is appropriate only "when the face of the complaint clearly reveals the existence of a meritorious affirmative defense" (emphasis added)); Myvett v. Litton Loan Servicing, LP, No. CV-08-5797 MMC, 2010 WL 761317, at *4 (N.D.Cal. Mar. 3, 2010) (explaining that a defendant's "reliance on the statute of limitations [was] unavailing, as plaintiffs [did] not allege the date on which the loan servicing contract was assigned").

Nevertheless, Plaintiff's claim regarding nondisclosure of the transfer of her loan servicing contract must be dismissed as currently pled. To state a claim for such a violation under § 2605(b)(1),12 a plaintiff must allege facts regarding whether a defendant was a loan servicer, when the alleged transfer took place, what entities were involved in the transfer, and what specific damages plaintiff suffered due to the lack of notice. Teaupa v. U.S. Nat'l Bank, N.A., 836 F.Supp.2d 1083, 1097-99 (D.Haw.2011); Delino v. Platinum Community Bank, 628 F.Supp.2d 1226, 1232 (S.D.Cal.2009). Plaintiff provides no such factual allegations to support her claim. Indeed, beyond her "legal conclusion" that "Defendants ... failed to inform [her] of the actual transfer," she sets forth no information at all about this issue. (ECF No. 1 § 91). Her claim must, therefore, be dismissed. See, e.g., Delino, 628 F.Supp.2d at 1232 (dismissing a RESPA claim brought pursuant to § 2605(b)(1) for failure to state a claim); Gutierrez v. PNC Mortg., No. 10cv01770 AJB (RBB), 2012 WL 1033063, at *7 (S.D.Cal. Mar. 26, 2012) (finding that a plaintiff alleging only that "Defendants failed to notify him when his loan was transferred for servicing" had failed to state a claim under § 2605(b)(1)). Plaintiff will be granted leave to amend her complaint as to this claim within fourteen days from the date of the attached Order. Delino, 628 F.Supp.2d at 1232 (granting leave to amend under similar circumstances).

B. TILA Claims

TILA "is a federal statute applicable only to creditors and governs the terms and conditions of consumer credit by requiring that lenders disclose certain details about loans, fees, and costs." Davis v. Wilmington Fin., Inc., No. PJM 09-1505, 2010 WL 1375363, at *4 (D.Md. Mar. 26, 2010). Plaintiff's TILA claims are scattered throughout the complaint and generally assert that she did not receive accurate disclosures regarding itemization of finance charges or interest rates related to the refinancing of her home.13 The statute of limitations for claims for monetary damages arising under TILA is "one year from the date of the occurrence of the violation." 15 U.S.C. § 1640(e). This limitations period begins to run when the borrower accepts the creditor's extension of credit. Wachtel v. West, 476 F.2d 1062, 1065 (6th Cir.1973); Davis, 2010 WL 1375363, at *4; Woodrow v. Vericrest Fin., Inc., No. AW-09-1612, 2009 WL 4348594, at *2-3 (D.Md. Nov. 30, 2009). As previously noted, the refinancing of Plaintiff's home took place on September 7, 2007, and she did not file her complaint until nearly four years later. Accordingly, her TILA claims are time-barred and must be dismissed.14

C. RICO Claim

Defendants have moved to dismiss Plaintiff's RICO claim as insufficiently pled. Plaintiff appears to bring her RICO claim pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 1962(c).15 "In order for a RICO claim to survive a Rule 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss, Plaintiff[] must allege `(1) conduct; (2) of an enterprise; (3) through a pattern; (4) of racketeering.'" Davis, 2010 WL 1375363, at *3 (quoting Sedima, S.P.R.L. v. Imrex Co., 473 U.S. 479, 496, 105 S.Ct. 3275, 87 L.Ed.2d 346 (1985)). Plaintiff's sparse allegations wholly fail to satisfy these requirements.

First, Plaintiff provides no factual allegations that Defendants were engaged in an enterprise. "[A]n enterprise [is] defined as an ongoing organization, formal or informal, in which the various associates function as a continuing unit." Delk v. ArvinMeritor, Inc., 179 F.Supp.2d 615, 626-27 (W.D.N.C.2002), aff'd, 40 Fed. Appx. 775 (4th Cir.2002). The complaint states only that "Defendants engaged in a mortgage lending enterprise." (ECF No. 1 ¶ 106). It contains no factual averments regarding the relationships between or among Defendants, much less how they "function[ed] as a continuing unit." Delk, 179 F.Supp.2d at 626-27. Such a "`naked assertion[]' devoid of `further factual enhancement'" need not be credited when evaluating the sufficiency of "enterprise" allegations on a motion to dismiss. Gallant v. Deutsche Bank Nat'l Trust Co., 766 F.Supp.2d 714, 722-23 (W.D.Va.2011); Davis, 2010 WL 1375363, at *3-4 (dismissing a pro se complaint that did not contain any factual averments "that any Defendant was involved in any `enterprise' as required under [RICO]").

The complaint also fails to allege sufficiently that Defendants engaged in a pattern of racketeering activity. The RICO statute defines "racketeering activity," in relevant portion, as "any act which is indictable" under a number of enumerated criminal provisions, which include mail and wire fraud. 18 U.S.C. § 1961(1). The elements of mail fraud are (1) a scheme disclosing an intent to defraud, and (2) the use of the mails in furtherance of the scheme. Chisolm v. TranSouth Fin. Corp., 95 F.3d 331, 336 (4th Cir.1996). Wire fraud is similar, except that "wire, radio, or television," rather than the mails, provides the means to further the fraud. 18 U.S.C. § 1343. In the context of a RICO action, the mailings or wirings do not need to contain the misrepresentations that defrauded the plaintiff, but they must be in furtherance of the fraudulent, material misrepresentation upon which the plaintiff justifiably relied to her detriment. Chisolm, 95 F.3d at 337. Additionally, these fraud allegations must state with particularity "the fraudulent acts that form the alleged pattern of racketeering activity" in accordance with Rule 9(b). Menasco, Inc. v. Wasserman, 886 F.2d 681, 684 (4th Cir.1989) (quoting Schreiber Distrib. Co. v. Serv-Well Furniture Co., 806 F.2d 1393, 1400-01 (9th Cir.1986)).

To allege a "pattern" of racketeering activity, Plaintiff must show that at least two predicate acts of racketeering occurred within ten years of each other, 18 U.S.C. § 1961(5), that the acts were related, and that they "amount to or pose a threat of continued criminal activity," H.J., Inc. v. Nw. Bell Tel. Co., 492 U.S. 229, 240, 109 S.Ct. 2893, 106 L.Ed.2d 195 (1989). Acts are related if they "have the same or similar purposes, results, participants, victims, or methods of commission, or otherwise are interrelated by distinguishing characteristics and are not isolated events." Id. at 240, 109 S.Ct. 2893 (quoting Sedima, 473 U.S. at 486 n. 14, 105 S.Ct. 3275). With respect to the continuity element, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit has explained:

Menasco, Inc., 886 F.2d at 683-84 (internal quotation marks and citations omitted).

The Fourth Circuit has expressed reservations about RICO claims where the predicate acts are mail and wire fraud "because it will be the unusual fraud that does not enlist the mails and wires in its service at least twice." GE Inv. Private Placement Partners II v. Parker, 247 F.3d 543, 549 (4th Cir.2001) (internal quotation marks omitted). RICO liability is reserved for "ongoing unlawful activities whose scope and persistence pose a special threat to social well-being." Id. (quoting Menasco, Inc., 886 F.2d at 684). The pattern requirement thus serves to "prevent... ordinary commercial fraud from being transformed into a federal RICO claim." Menasco, Inc., 886 F.2d at 684-85. Accordingly, "[n]otwithstanding the fact that. alleged related acts [may] occur[] over a period of years, an allegation of mail and wire fraud against one victim, without more, does not satisfy the continuity element as interpreted by the Fourth Circuit." Orteck Int'l, Inc. v. TransPacific Tire & Wheel, Inc., No. DKC 05-2882, 2006 WL 2572474, at *18 (D.Md. Sept. 5, 2006) (citing Al-Abood ex rel. Al-Abood v. El-Shamari, 217 F.3d 225, 238-39 (4th Cir.2000)).

In light of this backdrop, Plaintiff's allegations fail to allege adequately a pattern of racketeering activity. Incorporating the few factual allegations regarding the refinancing and ultimate foreclosure of her home, Plaintiff asserts that "Defendants engaged in a mortgage lending enterprise to undertake th[is] conduct ... [and] used the interstate mail and wire systems to communicate and defraud [her] out of her real property." (ECF No. 1 ¶¶ 106, 108). At the outset, the vague reference to Defendants' use of mail or wire systems does not provide any factual description of how they employed mailings or wirings to execute the purportedly fraudulent scheme. Additionally, Plaintiff's allegations fail to set forth sufficiently a "scheme disclosing an intent to defraud." Plaintiff appears to allege fraud based on Defendants' "intentional misrepresentations" regarding her "ability to repay the [refinanced] loan and... her qualifications for [that] loan" and the potential forgery of certain signatures on unspecified foreclosure documents. (Id. ¶¶ 97-98).16 These bare, conclusory assertions fail to satisfy Rule 9(b)'s particularity requirement. Indeed, as to the refinancing itself, the allegations fail to reveal "the time, place, and contents of the false representations, [or] the identity of the person making the misrepresentation." Harrison, 176 F.3d at 784. Additionally, "[th]e Rule 9(b) problem is exacerbated in this [instance]" because multiple defendants are involved, but the complaint does not clearly identify "which Defendant played which role." Davis, 2010 WL 1375363, at *3 (citing Wang Labs., Inc. v. Burts, 612 F.Supp. 441, 445 (D.Md.1984)).17 As to the forged signatures on the foreclosure documents, the complaint does not reveal what foreclosure documents might contain forgeries, the identity of the parties whose signatures were forged, or the identity of the party who forged the signatures (although the complaint could be read to implicate an unidentified employee of Shapiro & Burson).

Finally, the complaint generally references only conduct directed at Plaintiff at the time of her refinancing and again during foreclosure proceedings against her home. But "a pattern requires more than just conduct directed at [a single] Plaintiff[]." Davis, 2010 WL 1375363, at *4; Orteck Int'l, Inc., 2006 WL 2572474, at *18. Indeed, in the absence of allegations of "specific fraudulent conduct perpetuated by any Defendant apart from the alleged conduct directed to Plaintiff[]," a RICO claim cannot survive a motion to dismiss. Davis, 2010 WL 1375363. Plaintiff's claim must, therefore, be dismissed.

D. Remaining State Law Claims

As previously noted, subject matter jurisdiction in this matter is based on the federal questions presented in the complaint.18 If Plaintiff chooses not to amend her complaint or if the amended complaint fails to state a claim under § 2605(b)(1), no federal question will remain. At that point, the court would likely decline to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over Plaintiff's state law claims. See 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c)(3) (explaining that district courts have discretion when determining whether to exercise supplemental jurisdiction after "dismiss[ing] all claims over which [they] ha[ve] original jurisdiction"); see Int'l Ass'n of Machinists & Aerospace Workers v. Werner-Masuda, 390 F.Supp.2d 479, 500 (D.Md.2005) (declining to exercise supplemental jurisdiction because all federal claims had been dismissed early in the case) (citing United Mine Workers of Am. v. Gibbs, 383 U.S. 715, 726, 86 S.Ct. 1130, 16 L.Ed.2d 218 (1966)). Thus, the court will defer consideration of Plaintiff's state law claims at this juncture.

IV. Conclusion

For the foregoing reasons, Defendants' motion to dismiss will be granted in part, and Plaintiff will be granted leave to amend her RESPA claim under § 2605(b)(1) within fourteen days of the date of the attached Order. A separate Order will follow.
