IMPORTANT: Cell Phone Numbers Become Public



REMINDER....4 days from today (Sept. 26), 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 or www.donotcall.gov (javascript:ol('http://www.donotcall.gov');)





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 TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS.



It only takes about 20 seconds.

i think it is bs bc when you do it for your home phone you can do it on line and enter the numbers there you do not have to call from the phone .

you can still register your cell phone with the do not call list



but what you have to realize is, any company that you do business wth can call you legally as much as they want; also, any charity can call you as much as they want....these are the most annoying I have found....

Yea, when I had my landline, I had registered and it worked great. I hardly ever had any telemarketers calling. I wasn't sure about cell phones though... it was almost believeable, the way they put it. By the way, can I register my email for a DO NOT SPAM ME with forwarded emails list? :D
