​AG Mayes announced Phase 2 of Operation Robocall Roundup, expanding the crackdown on illegal robocalls to include four of the largest voice providers in the country. As part of an ongoing investigation, the bipartisan Anti-Robocall Multistate Litigation Task Force has directed Inteliquent, Bandwidth, Lumen, and Peerless to stop transmitting suspected illegal robocalls across their networks. "People are being bombarded with incessant—and frankly, illegal— robocalls and scam calls, and my office is doing something about it. It almost makes you not want to answer the phone anymore. These companies are transmitting hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of suspected illegal robocalls and it’s absolutely unacceptable." – AG Mayes
