In collaboration with the Federal Trade Commission and law enforcement partners nationwide, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost today unveiled an initiative that expands the crackdown on illegal robocall operations responsible for inundating consumers with billions of unwanted calls. The joint state and federal “Operation Stop Scam Calls” builds upon the ongoing efforts of Ohio and other states to combat the persistent problem of robocalls and other unlawful telemarketing. The comprehensive initiative targets not only telemarketers and the companies that employ them but also lead generators who deceptively collect and provide consumers' phone numbers to robocallers, falsely representing that these individuals have consented to receive such calls.
