Task Force Targets 2 ‘Voice Service Providers’ for Illegal Robocalls

The national Anti-Robocall Litigation Task Force has taken enforcement action against two “voice service providers” for their alleged involvement in illegal robocalls, announced Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr (R) Tuesday. The providers being targeted in the action are Avid Telecom and One Eye, he said. “By partnering with a bipartisan coalition of attorneys general, we are able to leverage our resources and better identify those who are enabling these con artists in their attempts to steal from unsuspecting consumers,” said Carr. On behalf of the entire task force, Indiana is enforcing civil investigative demands (CIDs) against Avid and One Eye, but One Eye has stopped responding to the task force, and Avid has refused to answer the CID, said Carr’s office. Efforts to reach Avid and One Eye for comment Tuesday were unsuccessful.
