Prevent a little telemarketing and junk mail

[thereds]

FWD to moi:

In case you're not aware of it, the four major credit bureaus in the US will be allowed, starting July 1, to release your credit information (mailing address, phone numbers, etc.) to anyone who requests it. If you want to opt out of this release information, you can call 1-888-567-8688. It only takes a couple minutes to do and you can take care of anyone else in your household while making the call. You'll need to have all social security numbers readily available for those you are opting out. Be sure to listen closely, the first opt out is only for two years, make sure you wait until they prompt you to press "3" on your keypad to opt out for good.

Hope this helps everyone who wants to opt out.

Those telemarketers are a pain in the butt. Sometimes it is fun to screw around with them.

Whenever someone sends you junk mail with an option to buy. Here's what you do.

Take their junk brochures, put into the postage-paid envelope they send, and mail it off.

Give them a little taste of their medicine.


I once rubbed it in my doggy's poo before sending it back that way.
