CFA Joins Groups Urging the FCC to Adopt Strong Rulemaking to Prevent Robotexts

The Federal Communications Commission initiated a rulemaking proceeding to rein in malicious robotext campaigns. CFA joined several national consumer protection and privacy advocacy groups urging the FCC to strengthen its proposed approach by clarifying its own regulations, ensure that voluntary efforts by CTIA are not undermined by this rule, and engage in broader efforts to eliminate scam texts which cause tremendous financial harm to Americans.
