A local television studio had an investigation which has discovered that several Web sites will sell the last 100 phone numbers you have dialed to anyone who knows your phone number. The report found that sites like Locate Cell will sell the private phone numbers for about $100.

Once the fee is paid on the Web sites, anyone can get access to the phone numbers, including bank, doctor and work numbers, Local 6 News reported. The Web sites are not illegal, according to the report. If you believe someone has found your private information through a cell phone number, you are urged to contact the Florida Attorney General's Office.

Some services they offer which is very scary! I am not going to provide a link sorry! More of an informational post

WHERE IS THE LINK TO PURCHASE AN ITEM?

Telemarketing calls on cellular phones would be more than annoying, they could be very costly. The American cell phone customer pays for all calls, incoming and outgoing, in the form of plan minutes, roaming charges and other service fees. As a result, most telemarketing calls to cellular telephones are prohibited by the Federal Communications Commission. From the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 47, Chapter 1, Part 64, Subpart L, Section 64.1200(a)(1)(iii):

"No person or entity may initiate any telephone call... using an automatic telephone dialing system or an artificial or prerecorded voice to any telephone number assigned to a paging service, cellular telephone service, specialized mobile radio service, or other radio common carrier service, or any service for which the called party is charged for the call."

Part of the do not call list. I always put all of our mobile and home numbers on that and the NY DNC list too.

It is illegal for telemarketers to contact you on your cell phone unless you have a prior existing buisness relationship because those minutes cost you money. Unfortunately I can't cite the law but I am 99% sure its federal.
