Four "robocalling" companies, including an operation that allegedly scammed businesses by pretending to be Google, have shut down and settled lawsuits with the Federal Trade Commission. The FTC announced the news yesterday, claiming that the groups made "billions" of illegal prerecorded calls to phones across the US.
