a.k.a. Register In The “No Call” Registry (and It’s Illegal For Telemarketers To Call You)
A few months ago, I got all hot and bothered about the news that our cell phone numbers would soon be made available to telemarketers via 411 info.
One solution to this is to sign up for the “Do Not Call Registry.”
Most telemarketers cannot call your telephone number if it is in the National Do Not Call Registry. You can register your home and mobile phone numbers for free. Your registration will be effective for five years.
If a telemarketer calls you during that time, you can file a complaint.
It just took me less than a minute to register my home and cell phone numbers.
