Overview

  • Iliad filed a formal complaint with the Milan Tribunal after CLI Spoofing calls duped its own employees into believing they faced imminent tariff changes.
  • Scammers manipulate caller-ID numbers to harvest personal data and funnel victims into bogus contract sign-ups via lead-generation firms and call centers.
  • On May 19, AGCOM approved new rules empowering operators to identify and block spoofed numbers in an effort to stem voice-spoofing fraud.
  • Italy’s Antitrust authority has opened proceedings into deceptive telemarketing tied to CLI Spoofing, signalling a broader regulatory crackdown.
  • CEO Benedetto Levi said the lawsuit is designed to hit the “root cause” by pursuing those who acquire and trade consumer data through false declarations.
