Cingular Gets TRO Against Websites Selling Records
Cingular has issued a press release saying it has obtained temporary restraining orders against two internet sites that have been selling customer phone records online.
Cingular today obtained a Temporary Restraining Order from the U.S. District Court in Atlanta, GA, against two companies, Data Find Solutions, Inc. and 1st Source Information Specialists, Inc. Several weeks ago, Cingular filed a civil lawsuit alleging that these companies unlawfully obtained and disseminated Cingular customer records. The court has now granted Cingular's request for a Temporary Restraining Order in order to halt these companies' ability to obtain and sell Cingular customer records.
Cingular believes that 1st Source now owns Locate Cell and Cell Tolls, and that the two sites formerly were owned by Data Find.
AmericaBlog was able to obtain Wesley Clark's Sprint cell phone records for $89 from Locate Cell. CNN reported tonight it was able to buy a producer's Sprint cell phone recrods for the same price. John of AmericaBlog reports that he was able to buy his own Cingular calls from Locate Cell.
