Tell the FCC: Crack down on ‘cramming’

Tell the FCC: Crack down on ‘cramming’
 The “cramming” scam costs phone customers an estimated $2 billion a year. Have you ever found strange third-party charges “crammed” on your phone bill for services you never ordered?

Even more maddening, the Chicago Sun-Times reports that phone companies get a cut of this third-party revenue, so there’s little incentive to stop the scam.

Now it’s time to fight back. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) wants to know if it should issue tougher rules to stop cramming on landline and wireless bills.

Today, help stop the fraud! Tell the FCC to issue tougher rules on cramming, and tell your friends to do the same.
