National DO NOT CALL LIST for wireless phone numbers

[terip64]

...In a few weeks, ALL wireless phone numbers are being
released to telemarketing companies and you will start to receive sales
calls. YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THESE CALLS...

To prevent this, call the following number from your cell phone:
[phone]. It is the National DO NOT CALL LIST... It will only take a
minute of your time. It blocks your number for five (5) years.

You may also register at http://www.donotcall.gov

At this site you can do 3 phones.

in the FAQ it says the opposite:

What Phone Numbers Can I Register?

10. Can I register my cell phone on the National Do Not Call Registry?

Yes, you may place your personal cell phone number on the National Do Not Call Registry. The registry has accepted cell phone numbers since it opened for registrations in June 2003. There is no deadline to register a home or cell phone number on the Registry.

You may have received an email telling you that your cell phone is about to be assaulted by telemarketing calls as a result of a new cell phone number database; however, that is not the case. FCC regulations prohibit telemarketers from using automated dialers to call cell phone numbers. Automated dialers are standard in the industry, so most telemarketers don’t call consumers on their cell phones without their consent.
