    LANSING - Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel is one of four
    attorneys general to take action against illegal robocalls to the next
    level by partnering with YouMail, a platform that engages traceback
    technology to assist in determining the source of such calls. The
    company also offers an app that blocks calls automatically for users.

    The Department first leaned on YouMail in 2020 when Nessel, as part of
    a bipartisan coalition of 52 attorneys general, called on USTelecom to
    continue its collaboration with state attorneys general by bolstering technological capabilities to improve enforcement against illegal
    robocallers.

    Most recently, YouMail assisted Nessel in action investigating scam
    robocalls pretending to offer AT&T DirecTV services, with a goal of
    putting a stop to the illegal robocalls.
