>>Hi,

>>I am a little tired of telemarketers. So, I decided to put my telephone number on the Do Not Call Registry. I Googled and the URL came up with www.donotcall.gov. This site first suggest to register using the telephone number and my email.
>>I am concerned that this URL (although it looks very legitimate) could be a trap to get my information.
>>Anyone used this URL to register and put your telephone number on a Do Not Call list? This, of course, applies only to the residents of the USA.

>Beware, it doesn't apply to pollsters and pretend cops and firem.. firepers... firefighters. They do have a habit of ticking your number as "always call" if you once, just once, respond positively to whatever they offer. Specially the "police union-club-brotherhood-whatever", who usually hire the same call centers like everybody else, just feed them a different pick up line. They stopped calling when I asked "are you really an officer? What's your rank?". The guy never knew whether I may be recording, so he didn't get as far as false impersonation.

Thank you. Good to know that this is a real link. I stopped talking or asking question of telemarketers. I simply hang up. Unless I think it may be a prospective customer. But it is very rare.
