#2 Agreed. Totally false. Variations have been around for a long time.

#3 It is a good idea to register your land lines though. I registered mine a few years ago and very rarely get what I believe to be an illegal call.

#5 The "do not call" database idea has now been discontinued. There is no longer any such thing as a "do not call" registration for either land or cell lines.

#6 The Do Not Call registry is still valid. Instead of expiring after 5 years, it is now permanent.

Your registration will not expire. Telephone numbers placed on the National Do Not Call Registry will remain on it permanently due to the Do-Not-Call Improvement Act of 2007, which became law in February 2008. Read more about it at http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2008/04/dncfyi.shtm.
