In Pennsylvania is it legal to record a telephone call without notifying the other party in cases where you initiate the phone call?
If the recording of a phone conversation is legal in the state in which the call is received then it is irrelevant where the phone call is originating from. Regardless of existing state statutes laws prohibiting the taping of phone conversations are seldom enforceable when they pertain to private issues such as debt collections. Appellate courts in all states have ruled that there can be no reasonable expectations of the caller that any phone conversation is confidential.
