Heh. Apparently they are seeking the maximum fine only for the 80,000 calls the FCC verified (http://transition.fcc.gov/Daily_Releases/Daily_Business/2017/db062

Heh. Apparently they are seeking the maximum fine only for the 80,000 calls the FCC verified (http://transition.fcc.gov/Daily_Releases/Daily_Business/2017/db0623/DOC-345470A1.pdf http://transition.fcc.gov/Daily_Releases/Daily_Business/2017...). Had the full 96 million spoofed calls been used, Mr. Adrian Abramovich could've been eligible for a $144 billion dollar fine.
My guess is, this is legislation designed to sting when even large, resource-heavy corporations do it. Example: Dish Network got fined $341 million in two separate TCPA violations recently (http://www.fcclawblog.com/2017/06/articles/fcc/dish-network-tcpa-violations/ http://www.fcclawblog.com/2017/06/articles/fcc/dish-network-...). Such numbers will make even a Dish Network notice. Dish Network is not going to wince once if a fine designed for an individual scammer is utilized.
