Look up any landline or cell phone number (even your own!) at www.whoscallin.me to find out if they have information on you.
Remember those nights not too long ago when you had just sat down to dinner. Your work day was over and all you wanted was to relax and settle in to a comforting meal with your family. Suddenly…. Ring!!! You get up, trudge over to pick up the phone only to hear some telemarketer mispronounce your name and go straight into their sales script.
Not too pleasant, huh? Well, imagine this happening again. But this time, you are out with your friends or at a family gathering. They’ve got your cell phone number now, you can’t get away.
Most everyone knows about the national do not call list at donotcall.gov. The good news is that it now includes cell phone numbers. The bad news is that telemarketers, in order to stay afloat, have taken drastic measures to get your private information.
While the internet is a great place to learn all kinds of things, telemarketers are using it right now to track down your cell phone number.
How do they do it? Well, they often use the popular reverse phone databases that are now available. It’s not legal for them to put your name on a marketing list without your permission. But you better believe they do it. The reward for them far outweighs the risk.
It’s only a matter of time before your number is found and your information is sold to all kinds of telemarketing agencies. In order to prevent them from invading your private life once again with harassing phone calls, you too must take drastic action.
The great thing is that it’s very quick and easy to take your name out of these secret databases and you’ll be shocked at how cheap it is to do so.
Here are the steps you need to take:
1. Look up your cell phone number in the search box here.
If you see your location, you can be sure your name is in the database, along with other information such as your personal address, previous addresses, neighbors, family members etc.
2. Click where it says “Click Here”
3. Check the box for your full phone report, and here’s the most important thing. Leave the box checked that says “Yes, I want to make my data private”. It’s only $4.95 and it will remove every trace of your private information linked to your cell phone.
Then, you can rest easy knowing that you have done the right thing. And while your friends start getting harassed with electronic voice messages and automated telemarketers over the coming months, you will know that you got your number out just in the nick of time. Don’t be lazy, the telemarketers aren’t going to be. Do it now!
