CTIA - The Wireless Association®: Privacy
CTIA-The Wireless Association® and the wireless industry maintain their highest regard for preserving the privacy of customer call records and other Customer Proprietary Network Information (CPNI), and take the matter of fraudulent obtaining and/or use of this information very seriously. The theft of CPNI is unacceptable, and the current practice of impersonating customers, known as “pretexting,” is illegal. The 109th Congress passed HR 4709, and CTIA and its member companies support this legislation that focuses on these criminals and increases fines and penalties that could result in this illegal activity. Congress has wisely targeted the illegal obtaining, sale, and purchasing of customers’ information, rather than imposing new rules that would inconvenience legitimate customers by making it harder for them to obtain information about their accounts.
