The Department of Justice announced Friday that two telecom carriers have been dealt with injunctions for facilitating hundreds of millions of fraudulent robocalls that have led to “massive financial losses to elderly and other vulnerable victims throughout the United States.”
The two separate civil actions entered by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York—United States v. Nicholas Palumbo, et al., and United States v. John Kahen, et al.—seek to bar eight individuals and entities from helping scammers transmit “massive volumes” of scam calls.
