In a few weeks cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing
companies and you will start to receive sale calls. You will be charged
for these calls.

Call this number from your cell phone 888-382-1222. It is the national
DO NOT CALL LIST. It only takes a minute of your time. It blocks your
number for 5 years. Please pass this on to everyone you know who doesn't
want to be hassled.

You can verify this at National Do Not Call Registry

I think I posted something on this 2 or 3 months back.

I'm pretty sure it's true.

The phone number looks legit doing a reverse phone book search for it...

Guys, this is bullshit. They cannot call your cell, as you have to pay for the call. This is just a hoax.


By the way, I was reading about this, and the "411 list" that the companies want to form, will be "opt in" only. You don't have to sign up to be removed, you have to sign up to be on it!!!!!!


On the other hand, if I wanted to get your number, what better way than to start this hoax. Millions of people might call, and BANG! You have their number.

Your correct I.O. I put copy of this in phone file only to discover I had one previously.

Thanks for links--I really don't want to call any list unless necessary--and mt phone rarily leaves car so they would have hard time hooking up with me.
Girls in office laugh at me--my cell time on bill a several months back was 8 minutes for entire month
