1179Florida 3 3064.
11826. At all times material hereto, R espondents operated and
1192conducted business as Unsecured Loan Source and Credit One Total.
12027 . On December 24, 2010, Mr. Mangini opened a business bank
1214checking account at TD Bank, N.A., in the name of First
1225Solutio ns, Inc. , d/b/a Credit One.
12318 . In early 2012, Nicole Gentry sought to obtain an
1242unsecured personal loan over the internet.
12489 . Ms. GentryÓs internet search led her to Unsecured Loan
1259Source.
12601 0 . Ms. Gentry contacted Unsecured Loan Source by telephone
1271a nd spoke with a representative named ÐEdÑ about securing an
1282unsecured personal loan. Ms. Gentry provid ed ÐEdÑ with c ertain
1293personal, credit, and bank account information to withdraw a loan
1303fee of $499.00 . Ms. Gentry p aid the $499.00 loan fee in order to
1318obtain a personal loan from Unsecured Loan Source .
13271 1 . The $499.00 fee was debited from Ms. GentryÓs bank
1339account shortly after she submitted her online application for
1348the loan , and the fee was deposited directly into the TD business
1360bank checking accou nt of First Solutions , Inc., d/b/a Credit One .
1372Subsequently, Ms. Gentry received an email requesting additional
1380information, and she provided the information requested .
1388However, Ms. Gentry never received a loan.
13951 2 . In August 2011, Rosa Saenz of Taft , California ,
1406attempted to obtain an unsecured personal loan.
14131 3 . Ms. Saenz Ós internet search led her to Credit One
1426Total.
14271 4 . Ms. Saenz contacted Credit One Total and spoke with a
1440representative named ÐNickÑ about securing an unsecured personal
1448loan in the amount of $5,000 . Ms. Saenz completed a form titled
1462ÐCredit One Total Paym ent by Check Authorization Form Ñ and faxed
1474it to Credit One Total . The form reflects that Credit One Total
1487is located at Ð 5340 North Federal Hwy #201 Lighthouse Point , FL
14993 33064 Ph. 312 - 554 - 5980 Fax 954 - 531 - 1440.Ñ
15131 5 . In the form, Ms. Saenz provided Credit One Total with
1526c ertain personal, credit, and bank account information , s o that
1537Credit One Total could withdraw a n initial installment loan fee
1548of $ 267.00 . Ms. Saenz ma de the initial installment fee payment
1561of $267.00, and , w ithin a couple of weeks, she m ade a second
1575installment fee payment to Credit One Total . Ms. Saenz did not
1587specify the amount of the second installment.
15941 6 . No direct evidence was presented that the two payments
1606made by Ms. Saenz were , in fact, deposited into the First
1617Solutions business bank checking a ccount at TD bank . The bank
1629records received in evidence do not include records from the year
16402011, and begin with the year 2012.
16471 7 . However, t h e business checking account of First
1659Solutions was utilized by Credit One Total . The TD bank records
1671reflect that checks made payable to Credit One Total were
1681deposited directly into the business bank checking account of
1690First Solutions , Inc., d/b/a Credi t One .
16981 8 . Both payments were made by Ms. Saenz as an advance fee
1712in order that she would obtain the loan from Credit One Total ,
1724and so that Credit One would repair her credit report . The
1736credit repair , however, was ancillary to Ms. Saenz Ós principal
1746re ason for making the advance fee payments -- to obtain a personal
1759loan .
176119 . Although Ms. Saenz paid the two installment fee
1771payments to Credit One Total for a loan , she never received a
1783loan.
17842 0 . The persuasive and credible evidence adduced at he aring
1796clearly and convincingly establishes that Respondents assessed or
1804collected advance fee payment s from two borrower s , Ms. Gentry and
1816Ms. Saenz .
18192 1 . The clear and convincing evidence adduced at hearing
1830establishes that Respondents acted as a loan b roker by assessing
1841or collecting advance fee payments from Ms. Gentry and Ms. Saenz .
1853Respondents did not have an exempt ion from section 687.14 in
1864order to be considered a loan broker .
18722 2 . OFR failed to prove by persuasive, credible, and clear
1884and convincing evidence that Respondents acted as a loan broker
1894with regard to anyone other than Ms. Gentry and Ms. Saenz . 2/

2355and convincing evidence. Ferris v. Turlington , 510 So. 2d 292
2365(Fla. 1987) . The "clear and convincing evidence" standard
2374requires that the evidence be found credible, the facts to which
2385the witnesses testify must be distinctly remembered, the
2393testimony must be precise and explicit, and the witnesses must be
2404lacking in confusion as to the facts in issue. The evidence must
2416be of such weight that it produces in the mind of the trier of
2430fact a firm belief or conviction, without hesitancy, as to the
2441truth of the allegations sought to be established. In re Davey ,
2452645 So. 2d 398, 404 (Fla. 1994); Slomowitz v. Walker , 429 So. 2d
2465797, 800 (Fla. 4th DCA 1983).
24713 1 . As detailed above, OFR proved, by clear and convincing
2483evidence , that Respondents acted as a loan broker by assessing or
2494collecting advance fee payments from two borrow ers, Ms. Gentry
2504and Ms. Saenz. OFR failed to prove, however, by clear and
2515convincing evidence, that Respondents acted as a loan broker by
2525assessing or collecting advance fee payments from any other
2534persons. 3/
253632. Pursuant to section 687.143(2), OF R may impose and
2546collect an administrative fine of up to $5,000 for each violation
2558against any person found to have violated any provision of this
2569act, any rule of the commission, order of the office, or written
2581agreement entered into with the office.
258733. Pursuant to section 687.143(2), OFR may also order a

2608that the loan broker has violated or is violating or will violate
2620any provision of this act, any rule of the commission, order of
2632th e office, or written agreement entered into with the office.
264334. At $5,000 per instance, the two proven instances equal

2787Division of Administrative Hearings
2791this 15th day of February , 2016 .
2798ENDNOTE S
28001/ At the hearing, counsel for OFR provided the undersigned with
2811a DVD - R containing most of its proposed hearing exhibits. Some
2823of the proposed exhibits on the DVD - R, however, were n ot received
2837into evidence at the hearing . Following the hearing, the
2847undersigned transferred onto a TDK CD those exhibits from the
2857DVD - R that were received into evidence at the final hearing.
2869With the exception of Exhibits 18 and 19, the TDK CD contains all
2882of the exhibits received int o evidence at the final hearing.
28932/ In an effort to prove additional instances of Respondents
2903acting as a loan broker, OFR attempted to solicit testimony
2913regarding various purported complaints by 44 other alleged
2921borrowers who did not testify . In preparation for the hearing,
2932Mr. Slisz reviewed documents contained in OFRÓs investigative
2940file collected or compiled by others. The investigative file
2949purportedly contained individual consumer complaints that were
2956either lodged with OFR or with law enfo rcement agencies that also
2968received complaints from citizens of various states.
2975Mr. Slisz testified at length regarding his review and
2984analysis of the TD bank records and the bank records show that
2996there were, in fact, a large number of deposits m ade into the TD
3010bank account maintained by First Solutions in the approximate
3019amount of $499.00, plus change. However, the fact that numerous
3029deposits were made into the account does not prove by clear and
3041convincing evidence that the monies were assessed or collected
3050from a borrower as an advance fee for a loan. Mr. Slisz lacks
3063personal knowledge with respect to what the deposits were given
3073in exchange for.
3076In an attempt to connect his review of the bank records to a
3089particular borrower, Mr. Slisz testified he reviewed information
3097from the complaints and tied the information from the complaints
3107back to the TD bank records. By OFRÓs own admission, t he
3119complaints were a key part of the chain of evidence necessary to
3131Ðfollow the moneyÑ and prove the significant number of instances
3141alleged in t he Administrative Complaint.
3147However, no ne of the purported complaints were offered into
3157evidence at the hearing, and no purported borrowers other than
3167Ms. Gentry and Ms. Saenz testified at the hearing.
3176The undersigned rejects Mr. Slisz Ós testimony with regard to
3186the complaints as u npersuasive and makes no factual findings
3196regarding the contents of any such alleged complaints.
32043/ Notably, e ven if the complaints were offered and received i nto
3217evidence at the hearing, however, that does not mean the
3227undersigned would have been required to use the complaints in
3237resolving a factual issue. As conceded by OFR in its proposed
3248recommended order, any reference to the complaints is hearsay .
3258Theref ore, t he complaints themselves, or any reference to the
3269complaints, cannot be used as the sole basis to support a finding
3281of fact, because the complaints do not fall within an exception
3292to the hearsay rule. See § 120.57(1)(c), Fla. Stat. ("Hearsay
3303eviden ce may be used for the purpose of supplementing or
3314explaining other evidence, but it shall not be sufficient in
3324itself to support a finding unless it would be admissible over
3335objection in civil actions.").
3340Contrary to OFRÓs position, the complaints do not supplement
3349or explain other non - hearsay evidence. Rather, the complaints
3359are a substantial missing l ink to the agencyÓs chain of evidence
3371upon which it seeks to prove the additional violations.
3380Finally, e ven if the testimony reg arding the complaints
3390could be used by the undersigned, however, for the reasons stated
3401above, the undersigned would not find any additional violations
3410b ased on the testimony because it is not credited or persuasive .
