Quoting the source:
Placing your number on the National Do Not Call Registry will stop most telemarketing calls, but not all. Because of limitations in the jurisdiction of the FTC and FCC, calls from or on behalf of political organizations, charities, and telephone surveyors would still be permitted, as would calls from companies with which you have an existing business relationship, or those to whom you’ve provided express agreement in writing to receive their calls.
This is VERY poor practice, but it's not a collection call...it's a sales call...not illegal...just very tacky
You need to contact the number on your card and "Opt Out" on any cross sales endeavors. Don't call the telemarketer...that's likely not AMEX...call AMEX or do it online - see #31 on the link
