response from AG...

I just received back a letter from my state's AG office. I had complained to them about a collector called Tristate Financial in Georgia. The good news is that Tristate stated in its response to my complaint, that they have closed my account., but the bad thing is, is that they lied in their reply to my AG office. They said that I called them the next day after their initial phone call and that I refused to cooperate when they asked for proof of me paying off the loan. I never called their office.
My question now is...what happens with my information that they have and will someone else, another collector, just get my same information and start trying to collect again?
also, I know that my state's AG office sent my original complaint to Tristate financial, but do they also send the collector any messages that let the collector know that they need to stop trying to call me and harassing me or do they just forward my complaint and then send me the reply? I guess what I am asking is do they defend me and take my side?

The AG will not represent you in a court of law...you would have to hire your own attorney.
