“Michigan consumers deserve relief from intrusive, illegal robocalls,” Nessel said. “I’m glad the court rejected Avid’s attempts to dismiss and delay this litigation from moving forward, and we are one step closer to holding accountable companies who knowingly route illegal robocalls through their networks.”
Avid Telecom allegedly sent or attempted to transmit more than 24 billion scam calls in a four-year period about Social Security Administration scams, Medicare scams, auto warranty scams, Amazon scams, DirecTV scams, credit card interest rate reduction scams, and employment scams. They continued transmitting these calls even after being notified at least 329 times that these illegal robocalls were being sent across their networks.
