Hi Steven,

I got fooled by this, see my blog entry here:

To summarize, according to Snopes, adding it to the Do Not Call list
does little good, but no harm.

Subject: Cell Phones - Do Not Call List

I received the following note from a friend; he forwarded it from
someone who sent it to him.  I am very suspicious of this.  I wonder if
it is really valid, or some scam to collect phone numbers.  I did look
at the website mentioned; but it looked a little suspicious also.
Anybody on the list know anything about this?

>I just received this note that I believe may be helpful. "In a few
weeks, cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies
and you will start to receive sales calls on cell phones. Call this
number from your cell phone 888-382-1222.It is the national Do Not Call
list.It blocks your number for 5 years. Please pass on, here is the
online form https://www.donotcall.gov/register/reg.aspx"
