Are you fed up with companies sending you junk faxes? Here are simple
ways to fight back:

1- Never ever call that toll free number that they put for you to be
removed from their fax. If you call that number you are confirming
that your fax number is good, and you will get more fax. They might
remove you from one list, and put you on 10 other lists!.

2- Call the company that the fax is listing for you to call them
(usually their toll free number) to inquire about whatever they want
to sell you or make you sign up for services, and tell them the
following:

you: Hi ...

them: Hi ...

you: Got your fax ...

them: Are you interested in Blah Blah Blah ...

you: No ...

them: Why you calling us?

you: Because I got your fax and I don't want amy ore faxes.

them: Give me your fax number and I'll remove you from the list.

you:No thanks, if I gave u my fax number, I will recieve more faxes.

them: so why you calling us.

you: Because I got your fax, and don't want more faxes.

They will hang up.

Repeat the above to the same number at least 10 times for each fax you
recieve!

Trust me this method will send them a signal that what they are doing
is wrong, and that it is time for them to stop faxing people that do
not care to recieve their faxes.

Let me know how it works for you.
