   The Federal Communications Commission, at its July 14, 2022 Open   
   Meeting, issued one of its largest proposed fines ever against an   
   individual and his companies that engaged in conduct that violated the   
   Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and the Commission's rules   
   prohibiting prerecorded voice message calls. The Notice of Apparent   
   Liability (NAL) proposed a penalty of $116,156,250 against Thomas   
   Dorsher and his companies ChariTel Inc., Ontel, Inc. and   
   ScammerBlaster, for sending 9,763,599 prerecorded voice message calls   
   to toll free (8YY) numbers without consent of the called parties.   
      
   The Commission's NAL outlines a brazen scheme by Dorsher using his   
   business relationship with a Local Exchange Carrier to originate   
   telephone calls to 8YY numbers for the primary purpose of generating   
   revenue from long distance carriers whose toll free customers received   
   these calls. Under this scheme, Dorsher caused millions of calls to be   
   placed with a prerecorded self-proclaimed "Public Service   
   Announcement" warning toll free customers about the dangers of illegal   
   robocalls, and directing recipients to report robocalls to the FCC,   
   phone companies, and the Dorsher entities' website. The calls were   
   placed between January 1, 2021 and March 2, 2021.
