Wireless Robocallers Face Massive FCC Fines
Two companies could be fined up to $4.8 million
Two companies could be slapped with fines of up to $4.8 million for making robocalls to millions of wireless phones, the Federal Communications Commission said today, after issuing citations to Dialing Services and Richard Gilmore, who does business as Democratic Dialing.
Before the FCC can levy any fines, the companies must certify within 15 days that they have ceased making robocalls to wireless phones.
During the FCC's investigation, the agency found that Dialing Services and Democratic Dialing each made in excess of one million calls to wireless phones without consumer permission during 2011 and 2012.
