[Cialug] Cell Phones

[Elizabeth Murray]

Because in the past, I've worked in telemarketing.  These directories
will be another source of income for the telephone companies.  It may
not be happening this month. . . . within 2006...I'm betting it will
become an issue.

Please check into "calls for action" before spreading the word.
In almost all cases they are fraudulent.

Just thought I'd add to this one!!!

Cell Numbers Going Public

Just a reminder,  in  a few days from today, cell phone numbers are
being released to telemarketing companies and you will start to
receive
sale calls.

YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THESE CALLS!

These telemarketers will eat up your free minutes and end up costing
you
money in the long run. 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.

PASS THIS ON TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS.

You can register on line at: http://www.donotcall.gov

An independent US Cellular Rep recently told someone at my workplace 
that the FCC rules changed and we need to get new phones. 

This smells funny to me. Any idea?

When an objection cannot be made formidable, there is some policy in
trying to make it frightful; and to substitute the yell and the 
war-whoop, in the place of reason, argument, and good order.
