Wouldn’t it be great if you never got a call from a telemarketer again? Well, 62 million Americans don’t anymore, thanks to the federal "Do Not Call" list. It’s not working perfectly, but it’s pretty darn close. If you haven’t already registered, go to donotcall.gov and sign up. Telemarketers cannot legally call your number for five years once you sign up. The system does not include charities, political parties and members of Congress, however. You can register up to three numbers at a time for no charge. And remember that the easiest way to avoid getting ripped off by telemarketers is to not answer the phone when they call.
