Revised rule and proposed amendment expand the fight against illegal telemarketing
The FTC just announced final updates to the Telemarketing Sales Rule and there’s an important revision that will help protect small businesses from scammers making misrepresentations in B2B calls. But that’s not all. The FTC also announced a proposed amendment to the TSR that would extend coverage to inbound telemarketing calls involving technical support services – another category of calls that has inflicted injury on consumers.
