    donot call on mobile phone warning

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Just a reminder to everyone: Mobile phone numbers going public next month!



    This is for Australian phone numbers

    REMEMBER: Mobile Phone Numbers Go Public next month.

    REMINDER: all mobile phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies and you will start to receive sale calls.

    YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THESE CALLS

    Below is a link where you can enter your phone numbers online to put an end to telemarketing calls.
    Don't just delete those calls otherwise you will find that you have been signed up for all sorts of extra services that you didn't want or know about. Like special chimes, music etc.

    The link below is the link you need to register your mobile number to stop the calls from happening...this is an Australian Government site so it is genuine....

    https://www.donotcall.gov.au/




    PASS THIS ON TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN

    Thanks so much for that, just did all our phones and fax. They are a PITA.

    Worries me the YOU WILL BE CHGARGED bit, what is our governments doing allowing stuff like this to happen.

    Gives these mongrels a licence to print money for no reason.

    Hi Guys, just to let you all know, this warning is actually a hoax, although the website is very real and can ve trusted. Yhis warning has been circulating for quite a few years, starting in the U.S. then the U.K and I first saw it over here about 6 years ago............. all being circulated via email........ so maybe there's some sort of trojan or tracking cookie attached to the email itself.

    Any way, no harm done on here and if you don't want those telemarketing calls, you may want to register your home numbers on that website.............. personally I just pick up the phone, put it on speaker phone, wai for them to say something, then I ask them to hold on one moment, I'll go off and do and do something whilst listening to them going "Helloo Helllooooooo, anyone there" and I'll wait for them to hang up.
    Or the other thing I llike to do, is to lead them to believe I'm reallyy interested in wanting what theyre selling but then say NoThanks, right at then end
