(JACKSON, MS) – Today, Chairman Dane Maxwell of the Mississippi Public Service Commission announced charges to

eight companies with alleged violations to Mississippi’s No Call Law. A joint investigation by the Commission and Office

of the Attorney General found these companies have allegedly called hundreds of consumers whose numbers are listed

on Mississippi’s Do Not Call Registry.

Notices of alleged violations have been filed against:

• AM Protection, Inc
• Straight Marketing
• Student Loan Financial Assistance, LLC
• Thrio/ Crisp Marketing, LLC
• Transparent BPO, LLC
• Vacation Tour and Travel
• Weibaio, GMEI, DTCC

“The Commission works closely with Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s office every day to ensure these illegal telemarketers

know not to take advantage of Mississippians,” Chairman Dane Maxwell said. “Our efforts are ongoing, but as always,

we need help from consumers who can help us catch these illegal callers.”
