All I know is that I was told it happened to several legitimate carriers
that were small companies. Just be careful is all I'm saying because its
not worth losing your business over.

Mary Lou,
Are you referring to the super sketchy voip providers who list a US
address but in reality are based overseas?
Like the ones where you google search the US street address on their
website using maps and find out it is just a run down apartment
building?
Or are you talking about more respectable outfits?

Subject: [VoiceOps] Robocall mitigation SCAM!
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!
