If you want to stop receiving calls from telemarketers, you can register your phone numbers (both land lines and cell phone numbers are accepted) with the National Do Not Call Registry. I have used this for several years now and it really does work. It takes about a month to take effect and is permanent; i.e. you would have to change your registration to start receiving such calls again.
