The FCC issued a notice permitting the carriers to begin blocking calls from three entities “One Street Financial,” “Main Street Financial,” and “Alliant Financial” following unsatisfactory responses to ITG tickets.
USTelecom’s Industry Traceback Group (ITG) conducted tracebacks on 13 calls placed to wireless numbers between November 10, 2023 and February 3, 2024.
The calls delivered prerecorded messages purportedly related to debt consolidation loans and claimed to be from “One Street Financial,” “Main Street Financial,” and “Alliant Financial.” Notice that these names are confusingly similar to–but apparent different from– entirely unrelated financial entities: (1) MainStreet Financial Services; and (2) Alliant Financial Solutions. (The FCC reports that both of these companies have posted warnings on their websites that their names are being used by another party to make “spam type calls offering lending services.”)
