Telemarketing calls have become both annoying and hard to avoid – but these days, that voice on the phone calling you at dinner time might not even be human. More and more, marketers, political activists, and scammers are using AI deepfakes to make their robocall messages even more convincing by simulating the voice of celebrities, politicians, and even your own family. The technology is so powerful that the messages can even integrate personal information about you, your interests, and your family that has been sourced online. Some scammers even record the calls to capture enough samples of your voice that they can train an AI to sound like you – so always be careful about how much you say to telemarketers, and never say the word ‘yes' as it can be played back to hack phone banking and other systems. Calls directed to you at work may be targeting you because of your job description, your approval powers for financial transfers, or your influence on other company executives. Don't be afraid to just hang up – and then pick up the phone to verify whether the caller was who they said they were. Earlier this year, the Federal Communications Commission declared AI voice cloning robocalls to be illegal, and the agency is in the process of formalizing rules that will force companies to tell you if their robocall is AI generated, and offer ways of protecting you from such calls.

Anyone with a phone number understands how annoying it is to receive unsolicited promotional voice calls and text messages. For that reason, telemarketing and telephone sales practices in the U.S. are regulated by decades-old federal and state consumer protection laws, which permit private rights of action by consumers for minimum statutory damages that can total hundreds of dollars per violation, such as when a call or text is made to a phone number listed on the National Do-Not-Call Registry. But are these laws too harsh on legitimate businesses communicating with their customers? How well do these 1990s-era laws address emerging communication technologies? In this episode, hosts Alicia Downey and Derek Jackson speak with Kelley, Drye & Warren partner Becca Wahlquist about these issues and recent developments in the law governing telemarketing to consumers. Learn about the challenges that businesses face in complying with a complex and evolving scheme of federal and state legislation and rules restricting telephone communications with consumers.

As of January 1, 2024, the State of Maryland's new telemarketing law, the ​“Stop the Spam Calls Act of 2023,” officially became law. One key provision of the new law creates a prohibition, absent prior express written consent, against ​“telephone solicitation[s]” that involve ​“an automated system for the selection or dialing of telephone numbers.” A ​“telephone solicitation” is defined as ​“an organized activity, program, or campaign to communicate by telephone with residents of Maryland in order to: (i) sell, lease, or rent goods or services; (ii) attempt to sell, lease, or rent goods or services; (iii) offer or attempt to offer a gift or prize; (iv) conduct or attempt to conduct a poll; or (v) request or attempt to request survey information, if the results of the survey will be used directly to solicit persons to purchase, lease, or rent goods or services.” The term ​“communicate by telephone” suggests an intent to include both phone calls and text messages within the scope of this definition. https://www.kelleydrye.com/viewpoints/blogs/ad-law-access/marylands-new-telemarketing-law-now-in-effect Alysa Hutnik ahutnik@kelleydrye.com (202) 342-8603 www.kelleydrye.com/people/alysa-z-hutnik Jennifer Rodden Wainwright jwainwright@kelleydrye.com (202) 342-8649 www.kelleydrye.com/people/jennifer…dden-wainwright Subscribe to the Ad Law Access blog - www.kelleydrye.com/subscribe Subscribe to the Ad Law News Newsletter - www.kelleydrye.com/subscribe View the Advertising and Privacy Law Resource Center - www.kelleydrye.com/advertising-and-privacy-law Find all of our links here linktr.ee/KelleyDryeAdLaw Hosted by Simone Roach
