Do Not Call protection in Mississippi

Mississippi is one of the states that maintains its own Do Not Call registry alongside the federal National Do Not Call Registry, so telemarketers calling Mississippi numbers are expected to check both lists. Registering on the federal list at donotcall.gov is free and never expires; the state list is administered separately and may have its own registration process and renewal period.

Mississippi's separate Public Service Commission list was discontinued on 1 July 2023, with oversight moving to the Attorney General's office and the federal National Registry becoming the operative list for Mississippi residents. Numbers already on the state list at that date remain protected for enforcement purposes. (DNC scrubbing: federal, state and RND)

Whatever your state does, the federal National Do Not Call Registry applies, and the Telephone Consumer Protection Act gives you a private right of action against certain unlawful calls. Report unwanted calls at the FCC complaint centre and fraud at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.

Where do the calls reported in Mississippi come from?

Because caller ID is easily spoofed, a call reported in Mississippi may have been placed from anywhere in the world and may have displayed a Mississippi number that belongs to an uninvolved person. Area code alone tells you nothing reliable about a caller's location.
