Your service provider can and may sell off your details to telemarketers call centres that will use the line of calling on the service providers behalf to get their foot in the door.
The rate of calls on behalf of (not from) charities seems to increase after being placed on the register.

My advice, be blunt, say no thanks and hang up, dont listen to, or wait for any response.
Yes but you can do something about it. Take the time and date of call then there is a procedure to follow. Telstra has the logs. They identify them and fine or stop them. It works for me.
