It may be correct. I just came across another article about a guy who defaulted on a $100,000+ mortgage and then got a big tax bill from the IRS after the foreclosed home was sold for $1.

I believe it's the difference between the value of the defaulted loan and the amount of money paid for the home in a foreclosure sale that is reportable as income.
