(Columbus) -- Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost has joined six other states in filing suit against a pair of Texas businesses accused of blasting billions of illegal robocalls, including over 59 million calls to Ohioans.
The federal lawsuit alleges that Rising Eagle Capital Group LLC and JSquared Telecom LLC are behind a bombardment of robocalls offering extended car warranties and health care services.
Yost’s new Robocall Enforcement Unit is handling Ohio’s portion of the case.
