A caller on yesterday's show raised concerns about ChaCha not being "free" in the sense that it could possibly sell/share your cell# to 3rd party companies which then could spam/text you with ads. Clark and staff said they would look into the Terms of Use and see if they could find anything, but could not verify if they do or do not. Out of curiosity I tried the service once (mistake) after hearing about it on the show. Not many people have my cell# and I do not share it readily however late yesterday afternoon I received a call from uan unknown number and it was a solitation for some discount drug/pharmaceutical plan and I was surprised because the person asked for me by name also. I was asleep at the time and didn't think anything about it but after hearing the show last night and the caller's concern it made me wonder if the the call was related to my recent use of ChaCha (more than a coincidence I believe). I can only hope that was the only unsolicited call or text that I receive. I have cancelled by texting stop to 242242 as stated in their terms of service and I will be more careful in the future of whom I give my # to and suggest others do the same...
