RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- Attorney General Jeff Jackson spearheaded an effort to combat robocalls in North Carolina and nationwide.

Operation Robocall Roundup includes three enforcement actions, such as issuing warning letters to 37 voice service providers, demanding they halt illegal robocalls routed through their networks. The effort, led by Jackson, involves the Anti-robocall Litigation Task Force, made up of 51 bipartisan attorneys general.

These voice service providers, as stated in a news release, "have not complied with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules regarding responses to government traceback requests, failed to register in the FCC's Robocall Mitigation Database, or neglected to submit a plan outlining measures to reduce illegal robocalls on their networks."
