“Urgent Cash Loan” not a licensed CA lender, fraudulently lists DBO address

Jul 23, 2018

The Department of Business Oversight (DBO) has been notified that an entity, possibly based in France and offering loans at the website “urgentcashloanonline.com,” is claiming to be located at the address of the DBO’s Los Angeles office. This company, “Urgent Cash Loan Online” aka “Urgent-Cash-Loan” at website urgentcashloanonline.com, is not licensed to conduct lending business in California, and the physical address listed in emails from email address contact@urgentcashloanonline.com is not their address.

The DBO urges consumers to exercise extreme caution before responding to any solicitation promoting loans, escrow services or other offers.  To check whether a financial service provider is licensed in California, or to file a complaint, consumers should go to the DBO website at www.dbo.ca.gov or call 1-866-275-2677.
