Spam calls have become more invasive with the mass use of cell phones and machine telemarketing. Robocalls plague Americans every day, and even the most tech-savvy are vulnerable to fraud. A TCPA lawsuit could help you and others combat this invasive conduct.
Telemarketing from auto-dialers is both annoying and illegal. These robocalls and phone scams are violations of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). Not only can the perpetrators be punished with heavy fines, you have the right to file a personal claim over the violation. Compensation from a TCPA lawsuit may be especially important if you’ve been defrauded over the phone.
TCPA violations include unwanted texts, robocalls, and phishing scams, which is when a caller pretends to be from a reputable company like a bank in order to gain your personal information. With information such as credit card numbers, passwords, or answers to security questions, thieves can steal your identity and cause serious financial and personal harm.
You don’t have to tolerate these violations — you can claim $500 or up to $1,500 for every unsolicited call or text you receive from an auto-dialer.
