fuckers

[opabinia]

I just got cold-called on my cellphone by a web site hosting company called A+. I asked them where they got my number. They mentioned I had recently registered a domain name with register.com. I asked them again where they got my number. I don't know exactly where they get the numbers. Okay fine I don't want to talk to you take me off your list thanks bye *click*, I said. Fuckers.

I look at sites very closely for information-sharing/privacy stuff. My cellphone is do-not-call listed. I will be less polite if this happens again.

for what it's worth, i've never had an issue using a fake phone number with register.com ;)

Yeah, I never use real phone numbers on registrar info, it all goes into whois which is far too accessable.

It's a cell phone! They are not supposed to call those anyway due to the fact that it costs you minutes/money.

There's got to be a way to report the Fuckers.
