YOU MIGHT BE OWED $500-$1500
IN PENALTIES FOR EACH SPAM CALL YOU RECEIVE!
Penalties range from $500 – $1500 for every time you were called by an autodialer and/or received a pre-recorded message or text message for the purpose of getting you to buy something or to collect a debt.
As of October 2013, pursuant to the Telephone Communications Protection Act of 1991 (TCPA), businesses are not allowed to call OR text you using autodialing systems and/or with pre-recorded messages for the purposes of telemarketing or debt collection without your consent.
The TCPA limits the use of automatic dialing systems, artificial or prerecorded voice messages, SMS text messages, and fax machines. It also specifies several technical requirements for fax machines, autodialers, and voice messaging systems—principally with provisions requiring identification and contact information of the entity using the device to be contained in the message.
