Unsolicited Faxes - Fax Wars Pitting Small Business Owners Against Lawyers

It's important that you know the exact laws if you're going to send people advertisements that they didn't agree to.. For the most part, people don't sue unless you've sent them a ton of faxes and they're really upset. There are also groups of people that collect junk faxes and then send them off to lawyers that specialize in suing junk faxers / junk fax senders.
