Subject: AG Nessel Takes Action Regarding 'AT&T DirecTV' Scam Calls
February 17, 2022
LANSING - Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel has issued subpoenas
that will allow the Department to learn more about scammers pretending
to offer AT&T DirecTV services, with a goal of putting a stop to the
illegal robocalls.
Judge Joyce Draganchuk of the Ingham County Circuit Court recently
authorized the Attorney General to issue these subpoenas based upon an
Ex Parte Petition. The Petition explains that preliminary information
received by the Department's Corporate Oversight Division estimated
that more than half a million calls related to the spoofing campaign
are coming into Michigan each month.
