I just heard through the grapevine that several companies have been shut
down and/or threatened with the confiscation of their equipment for
passing Robocall traffic. The companies that this happened to all
claimed someone contacted them and told them to keep the TN/traffic up
so they could help catch the offenders. Unfortunately, whoever is
advising carriers to keep the traffic up is not on the up and up. The
ITG and large carriers came in and shut them down because they continued
to pass traffic that was identified as robocalls.
If someone contacts your company about a trace back and advises you to
keep the TNs / traffic up, DO NOT LEAVE IT UP! Document everything and
turn down the Robocall traffic as soon as possible! Then send both the
ITG and large carrier involved the account number and CDRs for the calls
in question.
Be safe out there.....it's getting crazy!
