Attorney General Tong Warns 9 Phone Providers Over Continued Unlawful Robocall Traffic

(Hartford, CT) – Attorney General William Tong and the 51 bipartisan attorneys general of the Anti-Robocall Multistate Litigation Task Force notified nine voice service providers that they may be violating state and federal laws by continuing to route allegedly unlawful robocalls across their networks. These warning letters include information about the task force’s investigation and analysis of each provider’s illegal and/or suspicious robocall traffic.

“These robocall middlemen have facilitated a flood of scam calls to American phones, abused by fraudsters impersonating governments and businesses to steal money and personal information. These nine companies are on notice-- stop facilitating illegal robocall traffic now, or we’re coming after you with the full weight of 51 attorneys general. Robocalls are more than just a nuisance, they facilitate fraud with the potential to inflict serious financial harm. If you receive a suspicious call, hang up, do not engage, and report it,” said Attorney General Tong.
