  If there is one topic that can unite this country right now, it is a universal distaste for robocalls! Utah Attorney General Derek Brown joins the show to discuss what the state is doing to help eliminate this scourge!  

This Day in Maine for Friday, August, 8th, 2025.

The political consultant who could face prison time for faking robocalls from Joe Biden is on trial.

Scam calls. Scam texts. Scam everything.This week on Fraudish, I'm talking with Alex Quilici, CEO of YouMail, and let me tell you—we cover it all. From robocalls to text scams to the rise of "romance baiting" (yes, we're rebranding “pig butchering”), Alex breaks down what's really going on behind that unknown number blowing up your phone.We also dig into:Why younger people fall for scams more often than you'd thinkEasy ways to protect your privacy (hint: secondary numbers are your friend)How scammers are using tech and emotions to trap peopleAnd yes—safe words aren't just for kids anymoreIf you think you're too smart to get scammed, you need to hear this. Stay skeptical, stay protected, and maybe don't answer that next call from “Scottsdale, AZ.”

ST. PETERSBURG, FL - ICA (Intelligent Communication Assistant), a communications security and AI assistant platform, took center stage at the Cloud Communications Alliance's Cloud Connections 2025 event with a solution aimed at eliminating robocalls, scams, and fragmented branded calling experiences. Michael Gough, founder of ICA, presented during the event's inaugural product showcase and outlined how the platform leverages artificial intelligence to identify unwanted or fraudulent communications in real time. “There are more than 40 billion robocalls, 20 billion scam texts and a trillion phishing attempts annually,” said Gough. “We're at an inflection point. ICA brings together voice, text, email and branded calling into one AI-powered framework.” Gough explained that ICA works similarly to navigation apps like Waze, learning from user behavior across a distributed network. When a robocaller or scammer contacts one ICA user, the behavior is analyzed and logged so that future calls from the same entity can be blocked systemwide. Unlike existing solutions such as STIR/SHAKEN, which Gough noted cannot cover all traffic types or legacy systems like TDM, ICA uses behavioral fingerprinting and network metadata to make real-time determinations about the legitimacy of a call or message. For calls from known and trusted sources such as a school or hospital, ICA allows communication to pass through without interruption. Beyond fraud detection, ICA also serves as a digital assistant, with features such as calendar-aware call handling, automated appointment scheduling, and adaptive call routing based on user preferences. Gough said ICA is currently available via licensing partnerships and is seeking additional partners, such as service providers, CPaaS platforms, and branded calling vendors. “We're here to complement and enhance the systems they already have in place,” he said. The company's website, myica.ai, provides more details about its offerings and partner opportunities.

Cloud Communications Alliance Preview | Technology Reseller News Podcast “It's not just a deterrent—it's a disincentive. We make robocalls so expensive, scammers stop calling.” — Michael Gough, ICA, Intelligent Communications Assistant. With the Cloud Connections Conference just days away (April 14–16 in St. Petersburg), both the Technology Reseller News and Cloud Communications Alliance communities are tuning in. On this special joint podcast episode, Doug Green, publisher of TR News, welcomed Michael Gough, CEO of ICA, one of five handpicked presenters in the upcoming CCA Solutions Showcase. And what Michael brought was more than just a preview—it was a live demonstration of how ICA is changing the game in communications security. One Platform to Block Them All “Too many robocalls. Too much spam. Too many scam texts,” said Gough. “Branded calling helps, and STIR/SHAKEN helps—but only a little, and only sometimes.” ICA's platform changes that by combining behavioral analysis, graph neural networks, and a cross-channel approach to stop spam across voice, SMS, email, and social media—without invading user privacy. In a live demo, Gough showed how ICA's digital assistant traps and stalls bad actors with lifelike conversations. “We call it scam the scammer,” he said. “They waste time, lose money, and stop calling.” A Better Call Experience—Everywhere Unlike legacy solutions, ICA works across all major communications platforms. The system distinguishes between contacts using relationship signals—like shared social media links or known contacts—and then filters calls accordingly. In a second demo, Gough showed how ICA intelligently handled a call from a trusted contact, verifying the reason for the call and sending a message when the recipient wasn't available. “It's seamless for the people you know and smart for the ones you don't,” Gough explained. Looking for Partners At Cloud Connections, ICA is actively seeking three new partners to integrate its technology. “This isn't vaporware,” Gough said. “We're already live. We're just looking to scale.” That's the power of CCA's event model, Doug Green noted. “This isn't a trade show. It's a connections event—and ICA is a perfect example of what happens when innovation meets the right audience.” Learn More Don't miss Michael Gough's live demo on April 15 at the Cloud Connections Conference.

Does your nonprofit want to build power and amplify its impact by engaging in robocalling and texting campaigns? Would it surprise you to find out that while this type of advocacy can effectively boost your reach and put you in touch with thousands (even millions) of supporters, it also comes with rules related to opt-out requirements, mandatory disclaimers, prior consent, and more? On this episode, we'll introduce you to our new Robocalling guide and walk through several of the issues your nonprofit needs to think about before you pick up the phone or click send on a robocall or robotext campaign.     Attorneys for this Episode  Monika Graham  Melissa Marichal Zayas  Natalie Ossenfort    Robotext and Robocall Campaigns  Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and Federal Election Commission (FEC) each regulate robocalls and robotexts  For example, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), enforced by the FCC, strictly limits when organizations can make robocalls and robotexts. Violations of TCPA can result in stiff fines, so know the rules before you launch your next campaign.  Keep in mind that many states also have their own rules on these communication methods.  Federal Restrictions on Robocalls / Robotexts  What are robocalls and robotexts? Calls or texts made with an autodialer or using an artificial or pre-recorded voice.   Under federal law (the TCPA), a nonprofit organization must obtain an individual's “prior express consent” to: (a) send a call or text to a cell phone using an autodialer, a prerecorded voice, or an artificial voice, or (b) to send more than three prerecorded or artificial voice calls to a landline in a 30-day period.  Express consent requires:  The person gave permission to be contacted at their cell phone number.  The call is within the scope of the consent given.  The person hasn't revoked their consent.  Prior express consent is not the only consideration you need to think about before engaging in robocall or robotext campaigns. Identification, opt-out, and disclaimer requirements are going to be relevant too.  For example, federal law requires that all pre-recorded voice telephone messages to cell phones or landlines must include a specific identification disclaimer. Disclaimer must:  Clearly state at the beginning of the message the official registered name of the organization initiating the call, and  The telephone number of the organization (not the number of the vendor who placed the call, a 900 number, or a number for which charges exceed normal local or long-distance transmission charges).  Disclaimers may also be required if a non 501(c)(3) organization expressly advocates for or against a federal candidate or solicits contributions in relation to a federal election --> triggering federal campaign finance law, which is enforced by the FEC.  This type of disclaimer should not apply to 501(c)(3)s which are prohibited by the Internal Revenue Code from supporting or opposing candidates for public office.  Likewise, the IRS may require a disclaimer if fundraising solicitations are made by non-501(c)(3)s reminding the potential donor that contributions are not tax deductible.    Remember: State Law Matters Too!  Many states restrict certain types of calls, like robocalls. When they do, they often apply to both cell phones and landlines.  In many instances, state laws are similar to the federal rules, but variations between state and federal law do exist, and some states restrict calls that would otherwise be allowed under federal law.  Consult with counsel before launching your campaign because common state law requirements include:  Notification or self-identification requirements  Time restrictions  Geographic limits  Permit requirements  Prohibitions on caller ID blockers  And more!  State law may also require lobbyist or campaign finance registration and reporting in some instances.    FAQ New Robocalling guide contains a handy FAQ, where you can find answers to common questions like:  What are the best ways to collect cell phone numbers for these types of campaigns?  Are landlines treated differently than cell phones?  What happens when a cell phone number is reassigned to someone other than the person who provided consent?    Resources  Robocalling Rules: Before You Pick Up the Phone, Hold That Call. What You Need to Know about Robocalls, Robotexts, and Autodialers

Derek offers his thoughts on Kamala Harris, the new 2024 reality, and gender polarization in the "boys vs. girls" election. Then we talk about the spam apocalypse. The average American receives one spam call or text every single day, adding up to tens of billions of robocalls and texts per year. Derek welcomes Joshua Bercu, the executive director of Industry Traceback Group, to talk about the history and technology behind robocalls and texts, why it's been so hard to hold robocallers accountable, how spammers do that thing where they make a call look like it's coming from a local friend, how we've managed to crush certain kinds of robocalls, and what it would take to finally win the war on spam.
