Attorney General Jay Nixon has obtained a temporary restraining order against an on-line dating service that he accuses of calling Missourians on the state No Call list. Nixon says more than 140 Missourians on the No Call list reported receiving telemarketing calls from Luvoo.com, based in Tujunga, California. Nixon has sued the company; its owner, Lourdes Van Hoek; and a third company, Telephone Management Corporation, contending they violated Missouri law in soliciting memberships to the dating service. He has asked the court to block them from calling Missourians on the No Call list. He also asks the courts fine the company up to $5,000 per violation.
