Department Of Law And Investigation, Jeff Austin, Dennis Richards
Department of Law and Investigation and Illegal Debt Collection

On 7/20/09 I received a phone call from a man with a sever accent that called himself Officer Jeff Austin from the Department of Law and Investigation. He stated that I failed to repay a payday loan from a company called CASHNET. I don't recall ever obtaining a payday loan from CASHNET. This person went on to say that they were filing three counts of bank fraud against me. He then told me to write down a case number. He went on to explain that if I sent him via fax my credit card information that he could settle this out of court for $900. This made me very suspicious since I don't recall ever having the loan and was amazed that someone would ask me to send them my credit card information.

On 7/22/09 I called the phone number I was given and asked for some additional information. I requested the phone number of CASHNET and was told that I could not have that information and then he hung up on me. I immediatly called back and spoke with a man with the same accent that called himself Dennis Richards. He stated he was an attorney. I asked him for the address for the Department of Law and Investigation and he hung up on me. I made a third call and spoke with Officer Jeff Austin (by they way both voices, Jeff Austin and Dennis Richards, sounded like the same person) and told him that I needed a physical address because I was going to speak with an attorney and was going to file a complaint against his company. At that point he became very upset and said they would send a Investigator to my house. I told him that if any further communications were made to me I would file a law suit. He said they would be calling my employer to notify them that I am under investigation and then hung up the phone. I attempted to call him back three times withing 10 minutes and only received a busy signal.
