RE: FYI cellphone users
FYI: That's a rumor and is not going to happen. It started getting passed around in emails by who knows who. Guess it can't hurt to put your # on the do not call list, but there is no list to be released to telemarketers

Do not call that number. The FCC anounced that there is NO do not call list for cell phones yet. It's Spam and you will be charged a fee from the theives that put out this notice. It's just a scam to get you call that number and then you are billed for the call.

RE: FYI cellphone users
There was a segment on the radio (CBS affiliate) yesterday that spoke about this new scam. I'm not completely sure of all the details on they are working this new scam. They stated on the radio that when you call the number provided you are hit with a huge addition to your bill. I looked at the website and something there seems fishy. Does this look like a government backed website? I see a link to FTC.gov which seems legit but why does this site look so different and amatuer? I see little to no contact information other than that phone number. After what I heard I would not even consider calling these people. The radio also mentioned that there is no do not call list for cell phones yet, although one is in the works. All I'm saying is be cautious and careful.
