FCC Information Page for Unsolicited Faxes:
www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/unwantedfaxes.html
Note: Attorney Michael C. Worsham, other TCPA experts, and several courts disagree with the FCC assertion that there is an "established business relationship" exception for unsolicited faxes. There is no such exception in the law, which requires prior express permission to send an unsolicited advertisement. See 47 U.S.C. 227(a)(4).
