Text Scams Currently Circulating in Detroit

Both the City of Detroit and the 36th District Court want residents to know that they never send payment demands, ticket alerts, or warrants in text messages. These are some of the most common text scams currently circulating, and no matter how official they look, they remain scams. 

TCPA Sets Strict Limits for Spam Texts

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) sets strict standards for robocall campaigns, and they are designed to help protect consumers like you.

The Restrictions that Apply

TCPA requires companies to obtain prior express written consent in order to send out unsolicited promotional texts. Simply providing your number isn’t enough. The company must clearly disclose that you’re agreeing to receive marketing texts, and you must agree in writing, which can include an electronic signature.

Even if you do provide a company with your express consent for promotional texts, you have the right to opt out whenever you choose. And the company is required to provide you with a clear, effective, and efficient means of doing so.

If spam texts are intruding on your life, you can seek legal damages, and proving related financial loss is not required. TCPA includes statutory damages of $500 for every unsolicited promotional text that is sent outside the boundaries of the law.

The Do Not Call Registry

To begin, TCPA works in conjunction with the federal Do Not Call Registry to help protect your privacy. Commercial enterprises generally can’t send out unsolicited texts to those whose numbers are included on this registry. Legitimate telemarketers have 31 days to stop contacting a registered number.

Time Limits

There are also limits in place, which are determined by the Federal Communications Commission, that dictate when companies can send out promotional texts. The window is from 8 AM to 9 PM local time.
