Here's an email I received recently...
Starting Jan 1, 2005, all cell phone numbers will be made public to
telemarketing firms. So this means as of Jan 1, your cell phone may start
ringing off the hook with telemarketers, but unlike your home > phone, most
of you pay for your incoming calls. These telemarketers > will eat up your
free minutes and end up costing you money in the long > run. > >
According to the National Do Not Call List, you have until Dec. 15th > 2004
to get on the national "Do not call list" for cell phones. They > said that
you need to call 1-888-382-1222 from the cell phone that you > wish to have
put on the "do not call list" to be put on the list. They > also said you
can do it online at www.donotcall.gov. Registering > only takes a minute,
is in effect for 5 years and will possibly save > you money (definitely
frustration)! Make sure you register now! > > You must call from the phone
that you wish to register for the "Do Not Call" list. It only takes a
moment to register. DON'T HESITATE DO IT NOW!
