Telemarketing once again tops the list of complaints from Wisconsin consumers. The state Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection said Tuesday that telemarketing complaints account for nearly 2,000 of the roughly 10,000 formal complaints filed last year. It is the 10th year in a row that telemarketers and robo calls have topped the list. Rob Starbuck interviews DATCP spokesperson Sandy Chalmers about the problem.
