   On April 26, the DOJ filed a federal complaint on behalf of the FTC   
   against a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service, a related   
   company, and its owner for allegedly facilitating the transmission of   
   illegal telemarketing robocalls.   
      
   According to the complaint, the companies and owner assisted in the   
   transmission of millions of robocalls, including calls that they knew   
   or should have known were scams. Specifically, the company provided   
   VoIP services despite knowing that its customers were delivering   
   prerecorded messages and were displaying spoofed caller IDs in various   
   scams, including scams related to the COVID-19 pandemic, tech support,   
   and credit card interest rate reduction. Further allegations include   
   that the company knew its customers were placing calls to numbers on   
   the FTC's Do Not Call (DNC) Registry. Many of the robocalls originated   
   overseas, and the company also allegedly failed to prevent the calls   
   from reaching American consumers.
