Utah Joins Multistate Operation Robocall Roundup, Issues Warning Letters to 37 Telecom Companies 

Salt Lake City, UT—Today, Utah joined 51 bipartisan attorneys general in Operation Robocall Roundup, a multistate effort to safeguard Utahns from illegal robocalls. The Utah Department of Commerce’s Division of Consumer Protection (DCP) works alongside the Office of the Utah Attorney General (OAG) to investigate and enforce Utah’s consumer protection laws involving robocalls.

The Anti-Robocall Litigation Task Force is sending warning letters to 37 voice providers, demanding that they act now to stop illegal robocalls from routing through their networks.   

These providers have not complied with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules about responding to government traceback requests, have not registered in the FCC’s Robocall Mitigation Databases, or have not filed a plan that describes how they will reduce illegal robocalls on their network. By disregarding these simple rules, these companies are allowing robocallers onto their phone networks and then passing their calls on to other downstream providers until they reach the phones of Utahns.   

The task force is also sending the letters to 99 downstream providers that accept call traffic from the 37 companies, so that they know they are doing business with bad actors that are not willing to follow the rules that apply to everyone equally.   

The FCC is also scrutinizing several of these companies. Yesterday, it announced that it will remove seven of these providers from the Robocall Mitigation Database, which means that other providers will no longer be allowed to accept and route calls from their networks.
