REMEMBER: Cell Phone Numbers Go Public this month.
REMINDER..... all cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies and you will start to receive sales 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.
HELP OTHERS BY PASSING THIS ON .. It takes about 20 seconds.

Please forward to family and friends.

I worked in the cellular industry for over 25 years. If I had a dollar for every time that this email went around! It is not true and here is a news article from 2008 stating so. Please do not give this false email any more mileage!!

well...let's put it this way..I was watching the 6:00 local news 2 nights ago (Fox). Fox stated that it was...FACT... that cellphone companies were now selling records for extra cash. Don't know about any fake email, only what I saw and heard myself

I do not know what you saw, but I do know for a fact that the agency that oversees the wireless and wireline industry is the FCC. Here is a link to their site stating that it is fiction and they DO NOT maintain a national do not call list for wireless phones!

Oh then it MUST be true since a real news show said it! NOT....... I saw a new report a few times about a girl who cooked her insides with a tanning bed. Which has been proven over and over to be an urban legend. It was obvious they just took what some schmoe said as fact and did no fact checking of their own. And we have seen that how many times with other things in this investment?

Perhaps they should? I am getting spam in my text box now. Perhaps that is because I ordered pizza with that phone. A good reason to block your number when calling some businesses.

emmm..NO I don't think it was true just because it was on the news. I was simply adding to the commentary....
Also, if "therealbutterfly" wants only to belittle and demean others, I have no reason for further commentary.

So because I stated that what the news says could be false that means I demeaned and belittled you? I think you need to readjust your perspective. If I wanted to demean or belittle you, I would have done it directly and not in a round about way.
Since YOU stated it was stated as fact, thats what I went on. I had no intention of demeaning you in any way. If you read my post I pointed out that the news is often full of it. But it was kind of you to try to jump on me and attack me when I didnt attack you. Look in the mirror before you post because you were quite nasty to me.

Regardless, I entered my numbers years ago and the other day received my FIRST unsolicited sales call on my cell. I was angry, because I had signed up for Do Not Call years ago. I didn't remember that the list has a "shelf life." Better to be safe than sorry (anytime minutes are EXPENSIVE), and register. Doesn't take long.
Thank you for posting this. Very timely info. for my family!!

Thanks for the info, made the call, easily done.
And, how can info regarding something so simple as cell phone info induce insults between posters?... Doesn't make a lot of sense...

If it is real or fake, it only takes about 20 seconds to register your number. Some people have land lines at home and can use this information.

yep, I previously registered all my phones on the "Do Not Call List" and now have very few calls.
