FTC Publishes Telemarketing Fraud Legal Actions

In case anyone is interested the Federal Trade Commission is publishing it's results detailing their actions against telemarketing fraud on a new web site.

The FTC gathers a lot of data, which is available to law enforcement, including data on internet crimes, fraud in general and in particular identity theft.

For the main website, which has a lot of legal and political resources available, go to:

http://www.ftc.gov/

There is also a place to file any complaint you might have regarding fraud. They also sponsor the Do Not Call registry, which is a good start in avoiding telemarketing fraud and the pains associated with receiving unwanted calls!
