Legality Of Robo Calling Robocallers
<p>I have seen a few videos out there where an individual will find a spam robo caller's number and flood the call center with their own robo call. </p>

<p>Preventing the spammer from making any new calls and scamming more people.  </p>

<p>Is this legal? Or is this considered just as illegal as using a robo call to scam others? </p>

<p>First of all "spamming" is not the same thing as "scamming." But if you believe that the source is intentionally "spamming" or "scamming" there are places to report it (<a href="https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/blog/2015/08/stopping-unwanted-phone-calls-and-text-messages" rel="nofollow noreferrer">FTC</a>, <a href="https://www.usa.gov/stop-scams-frauds" rel="nofollow noreferrer">USA.gov</a>). Going vigilante is not wise. For one thing, if you are wrong and they can show they are advertising in good faith, you may be guilty of making "harassing phone calls", which is a misdemeanor (at least in California, <a href="http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?sectionNum=653m.&amp;lawCode=PEN" rel="nofollow noreferrer">PEN 653m(b)</a>). </p>
