Title: Telemarketing Sales Rule | |
Abstract:
Commission staff is considering proposed "Anti-Fraud" amendments to the Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR) concerning, among other things, the misuse of novel payment methods, such as remotely created checks, remotely created payment orders, cash-to-cash money transfers, and cash reload mechanisms in inbound or outbound telemarketing transactions, by telemarketers and sellers. On May 21, 2013, the Commission issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM), which was published in the Federal Register on July 9, 2013. 78 FR 41200. After a short extension, the comment period closed on August 8, 2013. Commission staff is reviewing the comments submitted in response to the NPRM, and anticipates making a recommendation to the Commission during the second quarter of 2015.
On August 11, 2014, the Commission initiated periodic review of this rule and solicited public comments. 79 FR 46732. The comment period as extended closed on November 13, 2014. 79 FR 61267. Staff anticipates making a recommendation to the Commission by the end of 2015. |
