"XCast Labs played a key role in helping telemarketers flood homes with unlawful robocalls, including robocalls impersonating the Social Security Administration," said Samuel Levine, director of the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection.The Justice Department filed the case on behalf of the FTC in district court in California.
