   The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) today ordered voice   
   service providers to block the global gateway provider One Eye. The   
   FCC says the company, which serves as an “on-ramp” to US phone   
   networks from outside the country, enabled robocall scams like   
   impersonating a major financial institution and calls about bogus   
   “preauthorized orders” placed in consumers’ names. The Biden   
   administration’s FCC has focused on increasing its ability to enforce   
   robocalls. “This company — what’s left of it — will now have a place   
   in robocall history,” said FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel. “We can   
   and will continue to shut off providers that help scammers.”
