The Federal Communication Commission (FCC) aims to Robocall Voicemail Ringless, with a new proposal submitted by Chairman Jessica Rosenworcel this week. The proposal increases the multi-year fighting agencies against spam and robocalls, the battle that looks relatively limited to this far. This effort has included requiring operators to fight unwanted automatic calls on their network, support the use of stir / shock protocols, and even threaten to block the operators who received profits from Robocalls.

Apart from these steps, according to the Youmail Robocall index, Americans still experienced more than 50 billion calls like that in 2021. The latest FCC step is to combat certain types of Robocall, Voicemail Ningel, quoting comfort and fraudulent problems.

Ringless Robocalls Voicemail Outbreak

Ringless Voicemail is a telemarketer and spammers method used to deposit messages recorded in the recipient’s voicemail without their telephone ringing. Between someone who was confused at that time losing a call, and the ability to adjust recording with targeted regional accents, this type of Robocall has proven to be quite effective.

Unfortunately, Ringless Voicemail still presents a significant disorder rate, and can cause serious problems. For example, the Voicemail inbox can be quickly filled with this Robocall message, causing important voice messages to disappear.

The Rosenworcel chairman proposed that this type of Robocall submitted to the same rules that regulate other forms. This will ensure that the caller obtains consumer approval before leaving Voicemail regardless.

“Voicemail ningel can be annoying, invasive, and can cause fraud like other robocalls – so it must face the same consumer protection rules,” said Rosenworcel Chair. “No one wants to navigate Spam Voicemail, or lose an important message because the mailbox is full. This FCC action will continue to empower consumers to choose which parties they provide permission to contact them.”
