As Deceit Grows, NY Beefs Up Telemarketing Law
Telemarketers have to use accurate caller ID information under a bill signed into law Thursday by Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
An initiative announced by the Democratic governor also includes deploying state consumer protection staff to warn consumers about telemarketing scams and facilitate filing of consumer complaints.

Consumers can register for the Do Not Call list online at www.donotcall.gov.
