But this one was actually helpful. I called the number and it's legit. For the benefit of my good friends who read this blog, I edited out the sensationalism and ALL CAPS SHOUTING from the original e-mail. But I refuse to e-mail anyone with this advice.
Cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies. You could start to receive sale calls.
You will be charged for these calls.
To prevent this, call the National Do Not Call list from your cell phone: 888-382-1222. 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.
