April, 2004 FTC
The FTC, March 31, 2004, issued amended rules requiring scrubbing against the national do-not-call list no more than every 31 days. The amended rule would take effect January 1, 2005.
The FTC has obtained an order against a company resolving allegations that it registered persons for the national do-not-call list for a fee.
The FTC has also obtained a preliminary injunction against two payment processing companies following allegations that they knowingly processed electronic payments for deceptive telemarketers. Any business can be found liable for violations of telemarketing laws for the businesses it works with if it knows, has reason to know, or consciously avoids knowing of the illegality under the telemarketing sale and continues to provide services to the illegal entity.

This registration appears to be similar to the limited registration found in Arizona, although with a $250 fee. You should review your registration status in the State of West Virginia if you rely on this exemption from telemarketing registration laws.
