Federal regulators on Thursday voted to impose fines on a Florida company accused of thieving phone call records and selling them on the Web for as little as $100.

At its monthly meeting, the Federal Communications Commission unanimously adopted an order that would force LocateCell to pay $97,500--the highest fee possible for an unregulated company in such a situation--for allegedly failing to provide the agency with all the information it had requested about how the company obtained the data it had sold.
