Stop Unwanted Calls: How to File a Complaint Against Telemarketers

If you're like Alicia and are tired of receiving unwanted telemarketing calls, you have the right to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Even after adding your number to the DoNotCall.gov registry, if telemarketers persist in calling you, you can take action against them.

The FTC is responsible for regulating telemarketing calls and ensuring that consumers are protected from unwanted solicitations. By filing a complaint with the FTC, you are helping to hold telemarketers accountable for their actions. In Alicia's case, the telemarketers could face fines of up to $40,000 for each call made to her registered number on the Do Not Call list.

It's important to remember that you have rights as a consumer, and the FTC is there to enforce those rights. By reporting telemarketers who violate regulations, you are not only protecting yourself but also helping to create a safer and more secure environment for all consumers.
