Austin Harvey is a 38 year old Caucasian man from Las Vegas, he has recently moved to Sandy Shores in an attempt to get closer to family members living in Los Santos who have broken off contact with him because of his past involvement in criminal activities. In his head, he thinks that his past was nullified when he stopped doing what he was doing, and he firmly believes that they will forgive and forget. Realistically this is never going to happen. In his past life, Austin was a well-known counterfeiter in Las Vegas, specialising in providing fake ID for underage gamblers in the city of sin. While creating fake driving licenses and identification cards was by far his most lucrative industry, he also maintained a regular side hustle creating counterfeit prescription slips for people online in states where marijuana is restricted to prescription holders. Austin spent around 5 years doing this actively before he discovered several of his counterfeits had been confiscated in a bar owned a former police officer. Several his younger, foreign customers had attempted to use them to drink in a bar that was known in the area to be frequented by local police officers off duty. In fear of the potential repercussions of his actions, Austin fled the state to prevent any investigation that stemmed from a previous customer providing his falsified name and the location he favoured for picking up money. Unfortunately, he had just invested the main bulk of his profits on new equipment that he had no hope of concealing in his car during his evacuation of Las Vegas, so he collected up what money he could and destroyed the various printers, and computers that were used in the act of forgery.
 
Austin envisions a better life for himself in Sandy Shores, even though he only has a a sum of unlaundered money stashed in his car, and a second-hand Karin Dilittante to his name. He intends to stick to using his real name and stay away from nefarious types as he settles down and hopefully finds a full-time job. He is currently living out of his car which can typically be found parked up near the abandoned, dilapidated motel structure with some blankets and a cushion in the back seat. He currently only has one set of clothes so it’s easy enough to spot him as he always looks the same, just gradually filthier as he gets back on his feet to be able to justify buying more clothes, or find a laundrette.
 
While he does not intend to get back into forgery, it is his only marketable skill so unless he finds suitable employment it is entirely possible that he could end up back in that trade.
