Cell phone numbers

Postby Silverbullet » Wed Aug 11, 2010 5:53 pm

Got an e-mail from a good friend. In the e-mail it says that Cell Phone numbers are going public. so you had bettr pucker up because those annoying sales calls will soon be coming to a cell phone near you. Not sure if this is true. anyone else hear this?

Snopes.com is one's best friend in a situation like this.

It is a false rumor, widely circulated by email to scare people:

Honeybee, thanks. I wasn't sure so I thought I would ask the board. Takes a load of my mind as the e-mail said that the owner of the Cell Phone would have to pay for the call and I am damned if I would pay to get called in the mddle of dinner.
