MADISON, WI (WTAQ-WRN) — Wisconsin is part of a nationwide crackdown on illegal telemarketing targeting.
Wisconsin’s Departments of Justice and Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection are part of the joint state and federal “Operation Stop Scam Calls” initiative aimed at telemarketers and the companies that hire them.
A DOJ press release says this builds on previous efforts to combat illegal telemarketing, including robocalls.
