Bill > A02661

This bill amends the New York General Business Law to require businesses that provide telephone number spoofing services to maintain detailed records of calls made through their platforms. "Spoofing" is defined as displaying caller identification information that is different from the actual telephone number used to place the call. Specifically, businesses must keep records that include the spoofed phone number that would appear on the recipient's caller ID, the actual telephone number or internet protocol (IP) address of the device placing the call, and the time, date, and duration of each telephone call. This legislation aims to increase transparency and accountability for businesses that offer number spoofing services, which are often used for fraudulent or deceptive purposes. The bill will go into effect 90 days after it becomes law, giving businesses time to implement the required record-keeping procedures.
