This isn't correct. I work for a tier 2 telco and both CLECs and ILECs regularly cancel accounts known for fraudulent traffic. At first they'll block the originating traffic from routing across their switch, but after review and positive confirmation they will terminate the subscribers account.
There is a constant arms race to detect and prevent fraudulent traffic. The idea the LECs would knowingly continue to provide service to these accounts is nonsense.

I am confident you have absolutely no examples of cancelling a customer because of the voice data they transmitted inside of a call, to another person.
- dtjb 4y agoI'm sure there are outliers, but I suspect you're right from a default policy perspective. I was too dismissive in my earlier comment.
