This FTC page says:
"The government is not releasing cell phone numbers to telemarketers."

1) So how will a telemarketer know what cell phones he's not allowed to
call?

There was an urban legend floating about stating that cellular numbers -
similar to a phone directory - were about to be released. That's what
THIS warning pertains to.

If you read closely and have reasonable comprehension, you will see that
both landline and cellular phones that you enter into the Do Not Call
list will be provided by the FTC to telemarketers so they know not to
call. What will NOT happen is a separate list of landline and cell
numbers. They are commingled in a single list.


2) If you wanted CreditKarma's free credit reports (from two of the
three services) what would you do about the field for your mobile
number, that they insist be filled in?

Don't use them or give them a fake number. Is that too difficult for
you to figure out?
