Telemarketing Victims Protection Act

Summary

Telemarketing Victims Protection Act - Amends the Telemarketing and Consumer Fraud and Abuse Prevention Act (the Act) to require the Federal Trade Commission to include in rules respecting abusive telemarketing acts or practices requirements that telemarketers: (1) notify consumers who are called that they have the right to be placed on either the telemarketer's do-not- call list or the appropriate State do-not-call list; and (2) shall regularly obtain and reconcile with their own list the appropriate State list. Directs the Commission to study and report to Congress on violations of the Act, especially of repeated violations by a single telemarketer and of the provisions for penalizing telemarketers for such violations, including new provisions which would allow Federal action against telemarketers.
