Phone number = Telemarketers

All offers require a phone number. Personally, I would prefer not to be called by telemarketers all the time.

Re: Phone number = Telemarketers

Maybe they just want it for identification purposes, not to call or send anything to you?

To be honest I usually put 888-888-8888 as a number and it works most of the time lol.

Re: Phone number = Telemarketers

if you live in the US, its quite simple to give your number and not get that many phone calls from telemarketers. Five words: National Do Not Call Registry. The website. Just sign up, and within one month, I was getting less than 1 telemarketer a month, and all I had to do was say i was on the National Do Not Call Registry, and to take me off their list. I'm no longer afraid to give out my phone # because of telemarketers. I'm now afraid of stalkers o.o .

Re: Phone number = Telemarketers

Yeah, I think the National Do Not Call Registry was one of the best things ever invented.
Although, don't just give out your phone number willy-nilly.

I never give my real number. Usally something like a nearby pizza place or something

I give out the flirt-divert number! I find that useful not only in diverting unwanted attention from drunk girls, but for other purposes as well!
