Cell phone #s being released to Telemarketers? not true
« on: January 17, 2007, 10:22:28 AM »
A friend sent me another one of these,,,,,,,,

 "REMINDER....12 days from today, all cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies and you will start to receive sale calls.
 
     .....YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THESE CALLS
 
    To prevent this, call the following number from your cell phone:    888-382-1222.
 
   It is the National DO NOT CALL list. It will only take a minute of your    time. It blocks your number for five (5) years.  You must call from the cell phone number you want to have blocked.  You cannot call from a different phone number."


  Ain't gonna happen.

Ya gotta applaud those bunnies for sacrificing their hearing just so some guy in Cupertino can have better TV reception.
