I have gotten several spam calls on my cell phone. I thought this was
outright illegal. But of course, they do not leave company information, only
a callback number (and sometimes not even that) which would only serve to
verify my phone number. Any suggestions? I didn't read the whole thread, so
apologies if this has already been addressed.

After I got a new cell phone number recently I began receiving many spam
SMS
messages. I listed my cell number with the Do Not Call registry and the
messages soon stopped.

Urban Legend!
See http://www.snopes.com/politics/business/cell411.asp
This is an Internet rumor that rears its ugly head every few months.
It's a good idea to register your LAND LINE with the do not call registry
if
you haven't already, but it is unnecessary for cell phones.
