Cell Phone Numbers Going Public ... Again?

Have to seen this? Maybe you got an email or read a news article?

Cell phones numbers go public this month. 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, the Federal Trade Commission has set up a National Do Not Call list. It will only take a minute of your time...It blocks you number for five (5) years. You must call from the cell phone number you want to have blocked. You cannot call from a different number. Call 888-382-1222.
The process takes about 20 seconds, do it now and save charges that you will not want
!

This urban legend has been circulating since 2004. There are variations, some will tell you you have a deadline to register, but all are equally false. Amazingly, I found this version on a news site.

You can register your cell phone number either by calling the number listed above or by going to
www.donotcall.gov - but you needn't worry that if you don't you will be inundated with calls on your cell phone next month.
