The Department issues a Final Order to Cease and Desist against Brittany Anderson.

Atlanta, Georgia – On or about April 25, 2024, the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance (“Department”) served an Order to Cease and Desist (“Order”) to Brittany Janifer Anderson for engaging in activities in violation of the Georgia Installment Loan Act (“GILA”), O.C.G.A. § 7-3-1 et seq. The Order became final on June 10, 2024. 

The Order provided that the Department had evidence that Ms. Anderson engaged in unlawful activities during the course of her employment with a licensed installment lender.  These activities involved fraudulently executing five (5) loan agreements by renewing open active customer accounts without the customers’ knowledge or consent, retaining the proceeds from at least one such customer account, and misrepresenting herself as a member of her employer’s legal department.

Pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 7-3-43(d), the Department may revoke the license of an installment lender that employs an individual subject to a final cease and desist order under GILA within the past five (5) years.
