Irvine, CA firm, Jack Price Sports,
to pay Mo. $15K for 'Don't-Call' violation
Sept. 10, 2004 - Jack Price Sports has been ordered to pay Missouri
$15,000 for violating that state's No Call law, said Missouri
Attorney General Jay Nixon Thursday.
Nixon said his office received more than 60 complaints about Jack
Price Sports, operated by Marc Meghrouni of Irvine, which offered
tips on point-spread betting on sports events.
In addition to the $15,000, Meghrouni agreed to not make any more
telemarketing calls to Missourians on the No Call list and abide by
the other provisions in the law.
Nationally, Do Not Call registration is good for up to 5 years. More
than 6 million Californians have joined the National Do Not Call
Registry.
The California Attorney General's Office urges California consumers
to file complaints with the FTC if telemarketing calls are received
on phone numbers placed on the National Do Not Call Registry before
September 1, 2003.
To date, Nixon's office has obtained nearly $1.2 million in judgments
against businesses that violated the No Call law.
California hasn't released how much it has collected in violations.
